RE: SX 2 who's got it?
So K, are you trying to get Cubase to set the tempo of song to the tempo of the loop ? Rather than timestretch the loop to the tempo of the song ?
(Untie tounge) Don't think there is a setting for it, although I'm sure I read in a review that this had been added back into SX2 after being dropped in SX1. Can't find anything in a scan of the manual.
However, if you select the loop you want and press 'P' to set the markers either side, then go into 'Timestretch' it will show you the temp of the loop. Just plop that into the Cubase tempo and shove the sample to the start of a bar.
Must say I'm well happy with SX2, had to wait a while for ESI to fix my STI card drivers but it was well worth it, it just feels 'right', a big impovement over SX1 withouth changing too much or creating a steep learning curve
I love the way the FX work now, much more in line with my sound mangling habbits, even though it uses slightly more CPU power I can use send FX much more effectivly and actually use less. Audio routing is quite inspirational too.
And I swear it sounds a little bit chrisper than SX1, maybe its my rose tinted spectacles.
Reminds me of one of my favorite bits of graffiti I found in a hospital bog:
'NO NURSE, I SAID REMOVE HIS SPECTACLES AND PRICK HIS BOIL!!!"
