In Acid you can choose any loop you want as a

the song to run at. Acid takes responsibility for resampling the loop
behind the scenes so that the loop plays right. (I.e. - starts and
ends on the beat.
How do we do this in Cheesetracker?
I think a few people have proposed a generalized loop stretching/beat
matching library. Not sure if it exists yet. This seems to be an area
where proprietary software is a little ahead.
Lee,
Thanks for the inputs. Reading between the lines I'm getting that
there are no trackers that you know of that are capable of plugging a
wave file in and running it, in time, like Acid can?
I cannot say for sure that they aren't. But this is my impression...
I've not don't much with time streatching
programs before under
Linux. I think they are out there. Presuming that no one else shows up
and rescues us from this problem it appears that is the way to go I
guess.
If there isn't one now then I guarantee you someone is working on it.
thanks.
FWIW a friend of mine met the guy who wrote Ableton Live. He said the
beat matching code took him about three months to write.
All that work and it still only works that well, 'eh?
Hmm, you don't like Live? I always thought it was pretty good...
