Subject:playing wav files just like ACID Posted by: Seth Date:2/24/2000 11:29:00 PM when I edit the acid properties of a wave file to a certain BPM and a certain key it doesn't always sound exactly like ACID. How can I play a wav file with acid properties EXACTLY like acid would ?? Thanks, Seth

You can use the time compress/stretch function to stretch/shrink the audio to the proper length for the BPMs you want and preserve it's pitch, just as Acid does. But to be honest it hasn't been my experience that any simple command or method in SF produces the exact same sound. Similar, but not the same. It doesn't appear to me that Acid & SF use the same algorithms. The artifacts produced by Acid are markedly different to my ears than those produced by SF. But, for you it may be a case of close enough. Chris H.

when I edit the acid properties of a wave file to a certain
BPM and a certain key it doesn't always sound exactly like
ACID. How can I play a wav file with acid properties
EXACTLY like acid would ??

Thanks,
Seth

Editing the ACID properties has no effect on the wav itself, only on
the information embedded into the file for ACID to read. So editing
the properties will not have any effect when playing the file outside
of ACID.

so there is no way for soundforge to "mimic" acid and play a wav like
acid would with the wav's acid properties?
