How to create a TEMPO TRACK based on a take recorded without metronome

[Peter Hintze]

Hi,

 

can anyone tell me how to create a TEMPO TRACK based on a take recorded without metronome.

In other words, i want to adjust the tempo (and all changes) of the project based on the recording i made.

 

Thank you very much.

 

Peter

There’s another thread with same question First thing you should always do is Enter your question to Google. 
But there’s 2 ways 

First is drag the audio to the timeline and melodyne will try and create a tempo map. 
Second is audio snap. There’s lots of tutorials on the subject. My favourite is the one by Mike of Creative Sauce

Use "Set Measure/Beat at now" which is in the "Project" menu. If your music is syncopated at all, doing this manually is going to get better results.

Keep in mind that CbB doesn't have negative measures so if your downbeat is not at the very beginning of the project you should mark the first downbeat as measure 2 (or 3 or 4 ...).

This is good stuff... but a bit unnerving that almost every tempo change does not occur right on a beat.
