acapella usage

Is there a decent way to detect exactly what the bpm of a acapella is?

I'm trying to get one at the minute to match to my tune but its a right guessing game trying to get it 100% accurate.

U can do it with Propellerhead's ReCycle. Just load it in there, and you'll get the bpm.

well......erm....count them then?????

When laying acapellas when I am playing out, I will normally pitch up the full track with drums etc- then one thats pitched right or in the ballpark, i will then needle jump to the acapella- 99% of the time they are the same speed.

hey its a suggestion.....unless you are using dodgy downloaded acapellas you will have the original somewhere, assuming its not come from a sample cd/record of some description.

Or just download/buy the original track which will give you a ballpark figure- that was my original point- use the original as a rough reference.

Tap tempo it on a bpm counter/efx 500, tempo map it in cubase or logic, count it manually with a stopatch and work it out, burn it to cd and pitch it to a track, grab a one bar section and stick in in recycycle or an editor as mentioned......lots of ways to do it- none of them exactly hard-just fiddly.
