Subject:Creating Acid loops Posted by: raventommy Date:12/20/2010 10:33:16 PM Hello, Stupid question: I'm trying to make some of my own Acid loops. After I render a .wav in Acid (or export a .wav from Sonar) and open it in SoundForge9, I open the 'Edit ACID properties' dialog and proceed to set the root note and number of beats. When I go to play it in Acid, if I increase or decrease the tempo just a single tick it sounds extremely warbly. The same is true if I transpose up or down (again, even if it's only 1 step away from original). I went back into SF, and instead of selecting the 'Loop' radio button, I selected the 'ACID Beatmapped' option; set the tempo and number of beats, opened it in Acid and it worked pretty well. Am I missing a step? I've compared my tracks to Sonic Foundry tracks from 8 years ago and they're not tagged as being Beatmapped --show as a normal loop, yet sound great, even when increased/decreased up to 20bpm. Thanks! P.S. If it matters, the original rendered and exported .wavs were in 24bit. I tried saving in both 24 and 16 and still get the same results.
