[@ZackNardone]

there are so many acapella warp tutorials on youtube but this is by far the clearest and most effective one! Thank you!

[@JoeyD56Baby]

he's never heard of ellie goulding lol sick

[@kjeshfdskjhfkjdshfkj]

+Jowie DeJohns lol so sick

[@tredfxman]

Too busy workin his tracks dude, dont have time to listen others. ithink its kinda common among producers that have to work their asses of to get a good mix. As a producer Focus is extremly important! And you can clearly see that this guys got it.

[@JoeyD56Baby]

yeah i produce too and also am aware ellie goulding somehow

[@tredfxman]

Jowie DeJohns Same here, but sometimes we live under our producer rocks coz we need to finalize stuff ;)

[@grandianiv1727]

Coincidentally trying to make an Ellie Goulding - Lights remix and watched this video because I'm new to Live. I kinda lol'd when he said he'd never heard of her.

[@robbret]

Best warping tutorial I’ve watched yet. Saved for reference.

[@TonyBublitz]

Sweet. Another tip, especially if you are working with acapellas that are not already from a synced source (classic rock for example). Turn the grid off and warp to the sound of the metronome. This also has the effect that your version of the acapella will be "unique" and not just an exact rhythmic copy of the original tune.

[@MsBeatJunkie]

Yes...he's a great instructor. There are many ways to do things and he does a awesome job showing that in his tuts

[@stephanieb5120]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. I was really struggling to figure out how to do this for weeks now and suddenly I totally get it because of this!

[@algrimme]

lol., "happy accidents abound". Good stuff man. Concise and easy to follow.

[@Juan-be6ho]

You are the only one after several tutorials, that came with the only simple solution to a very well known problem. Thanks mate, you made my day.

[@erkicaplatz7212]

thanks Barack!

[@sirsbusiness]

First warping video i've found that is very clear and easy to follow. Thank you good sir.

[@Deluxegameplayer]

This is probably the most useful tutorial Ive found since I keep coming back to it.

[@JourdanBordes]

i have been producing for about 8 years and really appreciate your video man . I love how well you explain and how you sound like Obama , I feel like the president is teaching me tutorials . the best tip I took away from this was holding down shift and moving the whole sample ! thank you

[@mixmasterb2006]

This tutorial is bang on point and has helped me immensely! Thank you so much Thavius!!! 🙏🏻

[@volk7471]

You make it so easy! I was trying to warp the music " I took a pill in ibiza " for 2 weeks, and i was destroying the song, haha! This was a very useful tutorial, thank you very much, Dubspot. CDE - Paraguay

[@alexhoward5560]

LEGEND!! You just saved me from pulling out my hair with this remix I'm working on.

[@angelmedina3550]

Only video that worked for me. Thank you so much.

[@DJ_JTILITY]

Thank you! I always get stuck on this - weird how ableton is so powerful and yet so unintuitive in areas like this. The detailed walkthrough was really helpful.

[@biggdrake]

I wanna thank you for making this video. I've been using acapellas and when it started to drift off beat I was doing slices and cuts to keep it on beat using the slave and follow feature on the acapella to match the beat. I subscribed because of this video. Thanks alot. 👍

[@kikou1225]

Man you helped me a lot with this technique. Usually I have no troubles warping vocals but I was stuck with one project and this tip works super good many thanks.

[@vanzyli]

This is almost exactly how I do this now after you helped me back in Level 5 of the Ableton course with my hardcore track that used Chicago vocals :)

[@youngzproduction7498]

Thanks for the guide, I've been having a real headache trying to warp a 150 bpm acapella into a 170 bpm. Hopefully this guide will help, Much appreciated.

[@14kacper.g88]

Thank You very much. I never knew how to do it.

[@MRDUKG]

You are the man... !!!! thanks.

[@bastiendocquois2104]

You're a legend. Thank you for doing God's work

[@DjGremix]

Awesome Tutorial

[@Elimbi1]

that video was very helpful! greetings from a beginner.

[@Seb0046]

Very nice approach! In a sense this is similar to manual beat matching. You find a reference point like the kick and then stretch (change tempo) to make the rest of the beats to match. I am using this method from now on.

[@vinsanity982]

Great video.
