interesting read for those of us/you who download vinyl rips and/or have tempo drift problems on your tracks
http://www.johnrofrano.com/tutorials/tempodrift.htm
he shows the example with one bar loops
if you find it takes too long do it with 2,4,8 bar loops, but you wont have as accurate results |

Are you suggesting that vinyl rips don't have a constant BPM?
That scares me because I'm in the process of ripping all my rare vinyls to computer in case anything happens to them. |

There's a very slim chance that any of your rips will have a constant BPM I'm afraid :( |

People have to stop worrying so much about slight fluctuations in tempo when ripping their vinyl.
If it was that bad then how have people been mixing on turntables all these years? |

Very true, but for most people the best feature of CDJ's over Vinyl is the fact that they can hold their pitch much better/longer leaving you time to do other more creative things.
So it is a bit gutting to have to be always riding the pitch when using CDJ's. |

Yes but the trade off is that you will never get it as accurate with CDJs as you can with a TT.
Swings and roundabouts. I honestly couldnt give a crap if it drifts 0.00something% over the course of a 10 minute track |

i rip my vinyls straight into ableton and warp them there to the nearest BPM, but to be honest if you can spin competently on vinyl (i.e, riding the pitch if needed) is it honestly any problem if you have to do so on CDs?
edit - that sounds like i pre pitch my tunes! i dont, honest :P but any vinyl i rip will be warped to the nearest BPM (eg Zocalo to 134 and burned with desire to 137)

| the reason vinyl rips dont have consistent tempo's is because the groups that originally ripped them ed around with the pitch so that you couldn't burn them and spin them later, they did it so that you still had to support the artist despite having the full tracks... only some grups do this.. some don't... and i dont think its yet to be done on cd rips because you don't need a turntable to rip cd tunes. |
