How to Fix OFF BEAT Sample in FL Studio | Matching Tempo + Fixing Timing with FL Studio NewTime

Today we learn 2 things. How to time stretch a sample in FL Studio to fit the project BPM and how to fix a recording that has timing issues within it using NewTime in FL Studio. If your sample bpm doesn't match your project, you can easily fix it through time stretching! If your sample does match the bpm but has timing issues you can easily fix this by using FL Studios NewTime plugin!

I don't know if the plugin's bugging out or what because neither dragging or sending the sample to the playlist from NewTime works. Other than that I got the timing fixed so great tutorial! Would love to be able to use it now Lol

[@ScaleAudio]

Sorry to hear and sorry for the late response! If worst comes to worse you can arm the mixer track you are using NewTime on and hit Ctrl+R. This will render a wav file from the mixer track you armed.

[@ErnestPaulRavi]

Real-Time stretching in playlist, just like other DAWs, could save time & screen space.!

[@ScaleAudio]

Very much so! Depending on the simplicty of the edit I like to keep my time stretching in the playlist myself. The one thing I love about newtime that the playlist cant do as easily is the ability to add swing.

Hey man your video is very helpful! I have a question to ask. I am running FL Studio 20. I quantized my recorded audio using newtime. However, when I save my quantized audio, it sounds glitchy and some parts are corrupted. Do you know a fix on this issue? Thanks in advance!

[@ScaleAudio]

Sorry for the late response! This sounds like a very interesting issue. You can try a work around for saving the audio. We can actually record the output of your NewTime plugin to the playlist as an audio file. First, arm the mixer track that your NewTime is on. You can do this by pressing the dot located to the bottom left of the volume slider for the mixer track in question. After the mixer track is armed, right click the main record button (located next to the play and stop buttons at the top of FL Studio). After right clicking the record button, make sure "Audio" is checked in the dropdown. Click the record button to turn it on and then press play. The output of your mixer track with NewTime will record to your playlist as a brand new audio file. Note: You may want to turn off the "Automation" recording in the same spot as the "Audio" recording, I've had it pick up things I didn't want before which can be annoying.

[@kahlaarabbani2907]

Is the newtime plugin similar to pro tools tempo mapping, where you set the grid to the transients of the sample?

[@ScaleAudio]

Sorry for the late response. I'm not sure about the pro tools tempo mapping because I haven't used pro tools in 10 + years. New Time gives you a snappable grid and allows you to stretch audio samples to that grid via snap points that you create. These snap points can be created anywhere along the sample (including transients). Not only can you snap these points to the grid, but you can move them off the grid and give them swing as well. Hope that description was helpful!

[@intrakitproductions]

Is there a way to consolidate the wave automatically to fit the bar loop without having to cut or stretch it every time ?? Whenever I consolidate a wave theres always an extra little piece at the end that goes over the bar

[@ScaleAudio]

Consolidating usually exports with any FX or reverb tails from the instrument itself etc. Easier to just cut rather than trying to fight any built in reverb or effects. In my opinion at least. Hot keys are my friend on this one. Usually I just click C to bring up the cut tool and hold shift+right click. Right clicking deletes the shortest side and shift snaps to whatever grid you’re set to. You may already know those though. You could probably actually try highlighting the the length you want to consolidate and then choose to “export the selected area”, and then choose “cut remainder” or “wrap remainder” if it lets you.

[@Edavidson]

Hi... Thank you for this... But please i need your help... I am working on a project that was recorded live. But the bpm of the live audio itself is not stable... Please how can i atleast make the bpm of the live audio itself stable and consistent

[@ScaleAudio]

Hello! Sorry for the late response! I think your best bet is to turn on the metronome, get it as close as you can, and then stretch and adjust the tracks as needed. You can make cuts and then right click each new chunk of audio in the playlist and "make new as sample". This will allow you to alter each new piece on its own so your adjustments can be individual instead of affecting the entire recording across the entirety of the playlist. You'll end up with a bunch of audio channels in the channel rack but you can always join them back together when you are done. If the recording fluctuates too much for the top method to be affective, I would try to use NewTime by marking every other beat and then quantizing.

[@jeezyj8431]

[@yosiariy]

how do I set the tempo only for one track ? In my case, I have set music including with its tempo, now I put in a new soundwave for vocal, but it recorded with different tempo, so when I play, the vocal didn't fit the tempo with the music... Please help, thank you

[@ScaleAudio]

You'll need put either the instruments or vocal into "Stretch Mode" via the audio wrapper. After it's in "Stretch Mode" you will want to adjust and stretch the audio manually to match the tempo you need. This can introduce artifacts into the audio and is not recommended for large changes (although sometimes it can sound really cool).

[@yosiariy]

@@ScaleAudio alright, thank you

[@Kevin-jz5gl]

i need a metronome in the same time with newtime

[@ScaleAudio]

If you loop newtime and link it so it plays at the same time as FL Studio, you should be able to pull up a blank pattern and work with FL's built in metronome

[@d42]

so whats the point of changing to stretch mode & changing the pitch manually if resample mode adjusts the pitch automatically? wouldnt the automatic way adjust the pitch perfectly - why are we trying to do it manually?

[@ScaleAudio]

If you want both time and pitch to change in congruence with each other then resample is great. Sometimes you don’t want the pitch of a sample to change, maybe you just want to change the overall bpm of your track or maybe you just want to fix a timing issue. In that case you’d use stretch because it will separate the pitch from the time. If you let resample decide the pitch you can also run into the issue where the pitch doesn’t actually change by a semitone but somewhere in between semitones (if you aren’t using the pitch slider but stretching on the playlist to match tempo) which can make for an out of tune track or a heck of a time manually changing the tune of everything else to match the sample in question. It’s really situational, resample can do just fine, however, since this video is concentrated on tempo matching we choose stretch mode so we can concentrate on the time aspect without worrying about how it will effect the pitch.
