Changing a project’s tempo
Changing a whole project’s tempo is simple with AudioSnap, if the tempo change is not drastic.
Before you change the global tempo of a project that contains audio, you must first make sure the
audio clips are configured to follow tempo changes.
After you change the tempo, you may want to bounce some or all of the tracks to new tracks with the
Radius algorithms to correct any unwanted change to each track’s sound.
To change a project’s tempo
1. Use the File > Open command to open the desired project.
2. Use the Edit > Select All command.
3. Press SHIFT+A to open the AudioSnap palette.
4. Zoom in (or press F) to get a better look at your clips.
5. With all clips still selected, enable the Clip Follows Project Tempo button in the AudioSnap
palette.
All the clips display the Auto Stretch icon , and will now conform to any new or future tempo
changes.
6. In the User1 toolbar, or the Tempo toolbar, click the Tempo value , type the desired
tempo value, and press ENTER.
All the tracks stretch to conform to the new tempo. Listen to the project as a whole, and also solo
each track to hear how different the sound is after stretching.

Using the Transient tool
Note: The Clips follow project tempo command only works on clips that are configured to
use musical time (the Time Base property is set to Musical (M:B:T) in the Clip Properties
dialog).
