![]() Tempo assignment in the stand-alone implementation That is where you edit the Bar Ruler, by dragging the graduations representing beats and bar lines to the right or left. This double-time variance is easily resolved, but music can be extremely complex, with time signature and tempo changes, constant fluctuations and passages where it dramatically speeds up or slows down.Īll differences of opinion to which these complexities may lead can be resolved in the Assign Tempo Mode. For this reason, Melodyne lets you tell it: “Don't run the song at 80 BPM but at 160 BPM”. Both results would be right in the sense that the loop would not shoot off at a tangent, but musically they would be completely different. You’d want to speed it up to match your 160 BPM, but Melodyne’s instinct will be to slow it down to its 80 BPM. Now suppose you wish to add from a library a drum loop originally recorded at 100 BPM. Take the case of a song in which you count twice as many beats as Melodyne: To your way of thinking, the tempo might be 160 BPM, whereas Melodyne interprets it as 80 BPM. ![]() Melodyne also “taps its foot” (so to speak), interpreting the tempo its way, which is not necessarily one with your own.Īdmittedly how it counts the rhythm makes no difference to the music itself, but it is important in certain contexts, one being when it comes to syncing recordings with different tempos. Both ways of counting are legitimate and a judgement call. One may tap twice as fast, because he’s counting the music in double time or he might pick up on a triplet impulse in the music while the other sticks to the quarter notes. Think of two people listening to the same song and tapping their feet.
