How to Prevent Unwanted Tempo Changes in Studio One | PreSonus

Have your audio files ever sped up or slowed down for seemingly no reason? This occurs because audio is stretching to conform to a changing tempo.
In this tutorial, PreSonus Product Specialist Joe Gilder demonstrates why this happens and how you can prevent it from happening in the future.

Thanks Joe, that was very helpful. I am always dealing with this problem it seems. Thanks.

[@presonus]

Always happy to help! It's a simple fix once you know what it is!

[@raymondspagnuolo8222]

Been there... done that!!!!! Very useful info! Thanks for posting!

Happy to help!

thanks Joe, exactly what i needed. 4.46 was my issue.

[@memorydriven1330]

Thank you so much!

[@REDTIGERBAND]

THANK YOU!

[@lar57jsy]

Thanks for this Joe! Love it when you give me stuff that catches me where I'm at. I can't afford Melodyne Studio level and my Melodyne Assistant doesn't offer Tempo Mapping, so at least this gives me a tool that can implement tempo changes.🙂

[@alphaomega6062]

mmm creative possibilities with this... I've often wondered what save tempo to file did and when it would be appropriate to use it. Thanks for another informative video. Whatever the topic I always learn something fro you.

[@presonus]

You're welcome!

[@Nic-FoleyRSA_damusiqalnerd]

I finally found this, coz I always wondered what would happen if I brought my song STEMS from Ableton Live to Studio One for mixing and mastering. well Joe this Video was helpful indeed thank you so much 🙏

[@presonus]

Glad that this can help you!

[@OKLAHOMALOVE2]

Let's say we have a folder with a lot of instrumentals/audio (2 track beats) and you've dragged the audio file into Studio One and have found the tempo. Without exporting the audio, is there a way to bake the tempo into the audio files (to maybe use it in another session with the tempo already in the audio)? Basically want to put metadata (tempo) into all of the audio files before bringing them into a new session.

[@mixedbymatty]

I wish you could make don't follow a default setting for new sessions.

[@HomeStudioCorner]

You can.

[@leejack1332]

@@HomeStudioCorner Can you show us?

[@djcomixxx]

@@HomeStudioCorner can you say how it works ?

[@muziekfeestje8635]

After the latest update I couldn't find the tempo/timestretch feature in the top of the audiotrack inspector anymore. Found the right-click menu bottom item 'customize' and saw this option unchecked. Why???

[@juniorpops7632]

Please do a new video of the mastering page.

[@presonus]

Hello! What topics on the Mastering Page would you like us to cover?

[@Freddekaddeth]

What is the best settings for midi? In my project it is set on seconds I discovered by checking it. But when I re-arrange parts of the song, it also messes up with the tempo that's been untouched.

[@authorviviana]

I have Studio One Artist for Mac and my inspector is not the same as yours. Mine only shows "group" "layers" "play overlaps" "delay" etc. But I don't have any "tempo" or "timestretch" options in my inspector.

[@michaeltablet8577]

Thank you very much! Where can i find this setting on my drummer? To him bpm is beers per minute.

[@windchimerainbow136]

🤣

[@presonus]

This comment wins the internet today. 😆

[@EdgarRoock]

9:13 You just came across a bug I noticed as well. Selecting multiple tracks with different tempo settings and then changing the setting will not apply it to all the tracks. Just the last selected or so.

[@galgogergo]

Studio One has many bugs unfortunately :( In Reaper they admire if you report them and try to fix them ASAP! In S1, well... that's another story 😅

[@studioonetutorials]

It's not a bug, but not all parameters in the inspector support batch editing with a multi-track selection.

[@deiviprod]

this is one of the biggest problems with studio one, most daws have this feature where you can choose if you want long samples or short samples to be stretch. Ableton by default understands that there is no need to stretch one-shot samples for example because it automatically detects the tempo of a file. Unfortunately with studio one you can't control that

[@nicknash2008]

You explained Don't Follow and Timestretch ... what does the FOLLOW setting do?

[@HomeStudioCorner]

In my understanding, it doesn't stretch anything, but the beginning of the event follows the tempo. So if you had a single drum hit that you duplicated and repeated on the quarter note, those events would move with tempo changes without technically stretching.

[@mangoman3038]

I have song that has tempo changes in the middle of the song,but when i transfer to show page it doesnt follow the tempo changes,i need to render the click...can you check this joe...?

[@bigheartsmolpen]

I am facing this exact problem too. Baffling how it isn't addressed yet.

[@presonus]

Hello! To render the click, while still on the Song Page, click on the wrench icon next to the Metronome icon at the bottom of the Transport Bar. You can render the Click there as a separate Stem with one more click. Once that's done, copy/paste it over to the Show Page as a dedicated Player.

[@aarongabbard]

This is aggravating when I go to play the metronome and I'm searching for the timing it changes my grid then i can't get it back to regular 4/4 it's killing me

[@boutstaxx]

🤙🏿

[@BenjaminGib]

I would like to play some air hockey with Joe

[@TomBelknapRoc]

Why would you want some audio files to match tempo and others not? Easy! If you're scoring for video. I just ran into this with my novice experimentations in scoring. I'd like my music to be able to change tempos as fits the exposition, but if your folly and vocal tracks change tempo... that's an issue!

[@presonus]

Spot on, Tom!
