F.A.Q.: WARPING

Machinate · Post by **Machinate** » Sun Sep 18, 2005 10:09 pm

hi GK, you definitely DONT want to warp to another track... setup a percussion loop in the impulse or something instead. You don't want it to be too messy either.

The whole point of the short snappy click-click-click-click is that the transients are easily heard.

turn up the font size in your browser, and read this thread again. it cant be any simpler than we've already explained it.

i'm actually considering cleaning this up and adding it to my site as a
semi-official FAQ

so unless anyone had other plans, im going to. maybe it will help stem the tide of new people asking over and over.

if anyone has any additonal suggestions or additions could you make them? thanks

I have a suggestion.

No questions from noobs until they've searched the FREE forum, read the FREE manual, used the FREE demo, Googled the Internet for FREE info, and made an effort without expecting to be breast fed by people with more important things to do than change diapers.

Yes, I know... we were all noobs once. But I didn't just sit on my lazy ass and mooch off others' knowledge without making an effort just because I could.

And learn to spell. (Apologies to those for whom English is a second language, but often have better spelling, grammar, and basic conversational intelligence than many of the Yanks, Brits, and Aussies here...me included).

Perhaps we DO need a deejay-only forum. I for one wouldn't have to read it. (Apologies also to the small group of literate DJs out there).

My browser font settings do not change the forum font size supster.
@hambone1 : strange thing..experienced live users do NOT want a dj-section,and at the same time keep complaining with dj's noob questions..

second time i mention it in one day,forum search function does not produce accurate results[or even results] and with the rate 10 new topics / 1hour , one cannot follow or find the FAQ topics.
And the manual is complete,but not in detail.

It seems that metronome+some standard correctly warped beats do that job,so,i guess i'm off your 'pro'-back

If you're on a Mac, Cmd+ will make your browser fonts bigger, Cmd– smaller, and I'm sure there's a PC equivalent.

winxp sp1 ie 6.0 sp1 , browser font settings doesn't change forum font size.

hambone1 · Post by **hambone1** » Thu Sep 22, 2005 10:06 pm

Not browser font settings.

Cmd + or – while browsing is a keyboard shortcut to make HTML font sizes bigger or smaller, irrespective to whether they're on a forum or not.

Works in Safari and IE on a Mac, not too sure about Windows.

Thanks for the tip, very handy.

He definitely DOES want to warp to another track. So long as that track was created by a computer and not ripped from vinyl.

GK, create a 4 beat loop in something like Fruity then loop it continuously for about 10-15 minutes depending on how long your longest tracks are. Mine is 15 mins just to make sure. I think the longest track I have is Sasha & Maria's Be As One at just over 13 mins. Then warp all your tracks around that. Its a deadly accurate loop and all your tracks will be just as accurate if warped around the loop properly. This way you can pick any 2 tracks safe in the knowledge that they'll match perfectly. NO METRONOME REQUIRED.
