switching tempos after cutting audio is not gonna work out for me
i record the whole arrangement top to tail, on guitar, for instance
but the drums have a different feel from 140 to 128, which both work -- there's no way in hell i'm gonna time-scale all my audio .. it would ruin it
After spending close to an hour on a guitar tone, i'm just not with that.
even if i sliced it , it would be like a 125 bar .REX, no way in hell
also I wish to record several layers or other rhythm guitar parts... they would all get destroyed
this also goes for my non electronica music -- but in that i don't have the same issue, because changing tempos doesn't give me a new, workable beat since i'm not using drum machines or the like

I change tempo all the time. I switch from 120 up to 150 and really enjoying keeping it moving tbh.
Last night I did something around 123bpm I think and it sounded like it was around 140 because of the percussion.

it's EMBER
S and it is 145bpm because if it was slower it would be breaks and if it was faster it would be dnb jungle

I thought the true spirit of srebme breaks was innovation.
And real sticks.

Yeah Ember is all about stikkks!
But dude if ur recording so much material for a song doesnt it make sense to commit to some bpm and play in it... i mean i dont think anyone goes and records tons of stuff unless they know at least some basic stuff about the tune they wanna make... i dont think u r ever gonna be able to record ur guitar at 90 bpm and think u r gonna be able to fit it nicely in ember breaks. I would suggest u then start ur song in midi lay it out axperiment with tempo and whatnot and once u r happy just commit to that tempo and start recording and changing those midi with ur guitar recordings...idk

yyyeah.... i commit to a tempo when i cut audio
its just difficult and holds me up sometimes when i'm using midi and get a nice groove at two or more tempo areas

I pretty much produce at 140-150 but my most recent track i am doing for the weekly tune challenge is at 100.I have to admit this is my first time at a different tempo and i'm really liking it,i don't think it will be the last i produce at this speed.
