what plug ins or programs are you guys using to change the tempo of a
song.
i use acid 4.0 but i'm getting wierd stuff happening around the
bass(phazing perhaps)....anything out there that will do the job
cleaner?

thanks!!

Samplitude, sometimes Ableton for drum loops.

Musicians. But sometimes you need to add Coffee.

A mouse and an editor that can do cuts and crossfades. It will take a
beginner a long time and you have to learn where to cut. However, with
most modern music that repeats a lot (I see you're already dealing with
loops via Acid, so there's tons of repetition there already), you could
probably do what you want in an afternoon, or maybe an hour or two if
you have reasonably raw sources that can be cut easily (and not premade
loops that can't be edited).

Most time compression and expansion algorithms sound really pretty bad
IMHO. They're usually worse in stereo too. They also ends up
stretching out some inappropriate parts of the notes, like the attacks,
which never need to be altered. Do it by hand and you'll be better off.

Monte, ever use Celemony's "Melodyne" program? I was looking at their demo
movie ay celemony.com. It looks like a quite natural to use interface for
pitch correction/harmonizing/tempo and pitch change/timestretching, and I have
heard a few guys swearing by the sound quality of the program.

I've heard of it, but never tried it yet. One more darn thing to do!!!
