Hello everyone!
I am pretty new to the production scene so if any of my questions sound stupid please don't get mad. Anyway, I use Acid 4.0 for right now along with Sound Forge. Now pretty much every time I bring a certain sound into Sound Forge to put some effects on it, when I bring it back into Acid it seams shorter, like the effects made the whole sample really short. I usually produce with a bpm of 135 or so, and the sample goes with the bpm but when I take it into Sound Forge and put some effects on it it shortens it up to where you can't even tell what the sound is. Another question I have deals with symbols. Now on reverse symbols, lets say I put a delay or echo on it, how do I get the echo/delay to match with the bpm, and when I use the delay on the reverse symbol do I delay the whole sound or just part of the symbol and if just a certain part, what part? Hopefully I have made some sence here, and any help will be appreciated.

i hate to sound like an ass... but you won't get too far with your producing using soundforge and acid pro... You need something that can actually create your loops and instruments
however, i think the problem maybe is that you are either 1) using some sort of time/pitch stretching on soundforge that is changing the sample length or 2) you have to run the beatmap wizard on acid
i'm not too sure what you mean by "effects".. you would get more help if you elaborated more on that |

When you bring in a sample into Acid after processing it in soundforge you need to set its properties to "one time". Otherwise Acid is going to try and change the playback of the sample.
If you need to do this for a loop, create the entire loop in Acid so that it is rhythm (in time), then save it with the "acidized" properties and open in Sound Forge.
As for Getting your delays in time you will need a delay calculator to figure out the correct delay time in ms for your BPM. There is a freeware program out there that you should go download. Type "delay calculator" in google to find it. |
