Tempo Event–Generated Warp Markers
Tempo Event–generated Warp markers are not
editable and are only displayed to indicate
where Elastic Audio processing has been applied
to conform the audio to Tempo Events. You will
only see Tempo Event–generated Warp markers
on tick-based tracks.
If you change the track timebase from ticks to
samples, any Tempo Event–generated Warp
markers convert to regular, editable Warp mark-
ers.
Warping Audio
In Warp view, you can manually warp audio in
three specific ways: Telescoping Warp, Accor-
dion Warp, and Range Warp.
Telescoping Warp
Telescoping Warp can be applied to any audio
region before or after a Warp marker as long as
no other Warp marker precedes or follows it ac-
cordingly. The audio can be on a sample- or tick-
based track. Telescoping Warp is especially use-
ful for adjusting audio files to match the session
tempo map and Bar|Beat grid.
For more information, see “Tempo Changes
and Tick-Based Elastic Audio Tracks” on
page 674.
Automation does not follow manual warp-
ing of audio regions, including TCE trim-
ming and quantization of Elastic Audio.
However, automation does follow tempo
changes on tick-based tracks.
