BPM from acappella voice song

[Erik Di Vico]

Hi,
I have some acappella voice of some songs… i'd like to know which is the best way to find the real BPM and
to place the audio track in my project to get it in Syncro with my song.
And how about to change the BPM of the vocal track ?

You can use audio snap to extract the tempo of the vocal clip

You can use the (press CTL& ALT key at the same time) and slide the right bottom of the clip with your mouse to change the tempo of the clip

There's also the brute force option - hit a sharp drum sound in time with the track, record that to its own track, and use CbB's ability to extract a tempo track from audio.

I create a click track at the suspected tempo and change the tempo as needed.

Hi CJ,
i'm feeling like a beginner ?? but where i find AUDIO SNAP ?
If i press CTL&ALT key but appear the "Scissors" icon tool  … ?

I was thinking something like ACID PRO that have a beatmapper widzard to find the BPM and set the start point  and the leght of the measure and then i can slow or rise up the BPM and have the track in Syncro with all the other tracks

As far as you getting the Split tool when you press CTL / Alt buttons to adjust the clips tempo, I dunno. This is the default setting on how it works. Maybe you changed the keybind settings. 'S' should be the split key, IIRC. I changed my 'S' to Save ...
