Mike Hockin Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I have been away for a few years and now I'm writing again using SONAR Platinum. I have a mix that is a bit too slow. Never had to do this before so not sure how to proceed. Is this the timing tool? Thanks, Hawky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Jacobson Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 In the new Cakewalk version, you would hit CTL and Shift and then click the bottom left corner of the clip and drag it out with your mouse. With SONAR Platinum, i'm pretty sure its you click CTL and ALT and click the bottom right corner of the clip and drag it out with your mouse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hockin Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Thanks for the reply CJ. CTL + ALT gives me the scissor tool and CTL + SHIFT looks like the right one. However, when I move the mix clip slightly to try and speed up the tempo the bass sounds like it has echo on it. Everything else seems okay. Also, this is not a clip with with just one instrument or vocal track; it's an entire mix. Would this matter? Might only work on a single clip and not a final mix. Not sure...

mark skinner Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Mike , I recently sped up every track on a new song after I tried recording a vocal track. It was easy for me because I knew my bpm. First thing is slip edit the beginning of your song until it goes to all the way to the beginning of your time line on the left (if it doesn't already) Second go to the very end of your song. Note where it ends on the time line , slip edit it to an even number if you want to. Right click your "edit" tool and choose "stretching" . Change your bpm to a faster one. Now grab the very end of your clip and slide it back to the same spot you ended on before changing the bpm. The slip tool changes to a different looking one when you choose "stretching" If you don't know your bpm , I guess anything would work if you increase it and use your ears. Minor changes aren't even noticeable with the new elastique pro stretching in CbB. Good luck ... mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would this matter? I have done entire mixes (stereo wav file) from 88bpm to 110bpm whit no artifacts, so it doesnt matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
