This was soo helpful!(as always) Thank you so much I am learning warping and sampling and I finally understand what I'm learning and supposed to do. So grateful!
HOW TO WARP ANY ACAPELLA OR PADS FOR REMIX PROPERLY AND WHAT ALGORITHMS SHOULD WE USE FOR SPECIFIC ELEMENT LIKE U SAID [BEATS FOR DRUMLOOP] COMPLEX PRO, RE-PITCH FOR WHAT VOCALS & PADS ETC?
I have been struggling to find an answer to this, I can see it happening here so hopefully someone here can help. When you stretched the sample so it was double the length at 2:25, how come the BPM of the clip went from 140 to 280? Shouldn't it go from 140 to 70? Is this just displayed incorrectly in ableton or is there something I'm not understanding? Thanks
im a bit late, but basically the warp tempo sets the markers for what the audio timing will lock to the session tempo, if the session tempo is 140, and you wish to make the audio longer / slower timing but you want to keep your session timing, you have to raise the warp bpm, 140 is half of 280, which equates to playing the warped audio at half speed. if you set the warp bpm to 70, and the session is 140, you will warp it the other direction (slower warp timing) resulting playing in double time. it seems confusing, but thats one of the ways you can use warping because its design to keep the audio in time with the session while also preserving the key signature and rest of the session tempo. if you disable warp, and change the tempo of the session, the audio will play at the same speed unchanged and the rest of the session grid will speed up or down independent of the audio. warping audio essentially treats it similar to midi and locks it with the session tempo, unless you change the warp bpm
The BPM field in the warp menu only sets how Ableton “interprets” the BPM of the sample you are warping. The BPM field does not necessarily represent the ACTUAL, original bpm of the sample being processed. Ableton is trying to match the difference between the tempo set in the warp menu, and the tempo set in your project. In this example, he is using a sample with an original tempo of 140, with a project tempo of 140. When he drags the sample into the project, the warp feature automatically detects the original tempo of the sample, and sets the warp tempo to 140BPM. When he stretches the warped sample to twice its original length, the BPM in the warp menu is doubled. This is because he is basically telling the program to treat the 140BPM sample as though it is a 280BPM, so ableton will try to match what it thinks is 280bpm sample to the project tempo of 140BPM. By doing so it effectively processes the sample to halftime. If he were to set the warp tempo to 70, the sample would play in double time, as ableton understands that 70bpm must be sped up in order to match the project tempo of 140. It’s a bit confusing at first but yeah, I hope this is helpful!
Hello, and thanks for all this info. . . I wonder if you can tell me why Ableton keeps warping my tracks? I have turned off warp in the preferences, and in the individual track configuration; but each time I record a new track (I'm just recording with a mic and a guitar through a Focusrite USB interface), the "warp" button is lit up yellow, and my tracks are out of sync. I can't get help from the forums because my license type (I'm using Ableton First and trying to learn the basics), doesn't allow access. I could really use a hand. Thanks in advance!
never stop to learn from ableton.....great tutorials
Nice one Fernando, thanks for your support :)
I dont have the time to watch this right now but i saved it for later. was waiting on this topic from such a long time. thanks a lot. ♥🔥💪
cheers for that suggestion, did the same

keep doing this I,m learning heaps
Great tutorials! Keep em coming. Perhaps one on warping with remixes when you get a minute? Getting them to match up is tricky
YES WE NEED ONE SESSION ON THIS TOPIC

1:05 Sounds like something by Massive Attack.
13:50 Sounds like something by Aphex Twin.
Thank you for using samples that I like 🎉 some tutorials are hard to watch when creator throws in pre historic sounds. I subscribed because of this 😅
In the lite version or introduction version at $99 do either one of these have the warping mode the advanced warping mode cuz that's all I need it for
What does warping do with the sound quality?
As a noob I can't find anyone else that explains shit as simple as you man. Cheers from Ireland 🍻 🇮🇪
great stuff
Is warping the same as quantize?
no. warping is usually for audio tracks. quantize is for midi tracks to correct the timing of the notes.
@@saahaslalwani Thanks bro!
Good video, good title
Thank you!
why you are using reverb for your voice? sounds bad to me. Anyway thanks for the content
I'm not, it's probably the room.

1.25x speed a must on this one.
