Making the Audio Follow the Tempo

This means changing the length of the audio ﬁle, to make it ﬁt the playback tempo.

One reason to do this (instead of matching the tempo to the audio) might be that

your Song contains other audio ﬁles that already match the tempo, or that you sim-

ply are perfectly satisﬁed with the playback tempo you have.

There are two ways to match the audio to the tempo:

• Use Hitpoint Match mode to ﬁnd the closest time stretch match, and tell

the program to time stretch

the whole Event

by one ﬁxed stretch factor.

This may be sufﬁcient if you are working with rather short Events and audio

with a fairly steady tempo. The method is described below, under the heading

Fixed Time Stretch.

• Use Hitpoint Link mode and tell the program to quantize the audio

Event.

This means that the Match Points in the audio are quantized (moved to coin-

cide with the Meter Hitpoints) and the audio material between the Match

Points are stretched/contracted accordingly. This method works with long

Events and audio with ﬂuctuating tempo. It is described on the following

pages under the heading Quantizing Audio.

Fixed Time Stretch

For this to work, the audio should have a fairly steady beat, and the Match Points

should be evenly distributed, for example on the quarter notes. However, it is sufﬁ-

cient if Match Points are inserted in the ﬁrst two or three bars of the Event (i.e. they

can be seen in the editor window at the same time).

1. Activate Master on the Transport Bar.

2. Set Snap to the note value that separates the Match Points.

In our example, this would be 4 (quarter note).

3. Pull down the Options pop-up menu and select Show Hitpoints Match.

This will display vertical lines rising from the Match Points. If the position of

the Match Points coincide with the Snap value, the lines will be fully drawn;

if the Match Points are “off” the Snap value, the lines will be dotted (see the

Hitpoints chapter in the main Cubase manual).

4. Set the Tolerance pop-up to a fairly high percentage.

The higher the Tolerance percentage, the more “off” the Match Points are al-

lowed to be and still be considered Matching.

Now, the object is to ﬁnd a stretch factor for the audio where as many as possible of

the M-Points are matching (shown with fully drawn vertical lines). This is done by

visually stretching the waveform in the window, using the slider to the left.
