Hi,

is your Instrument Track Tick based or Sample Based?
It should be Tick based.

Tick based but it doesn’t seem to matter.

If I take a session which has recorded audio and midi – and change the tempo setting – it has no affect.
I started out with recorded tempo of 112.

I changed the tempo to 50 bpm, no difference in playback. I changed to 250 bpm, no difference.
During trying this, I changed from tick to sample and there is no difference during playback.

However, if I add a click track – the click DOES follow the tempo setting changes.

Now this has got to be a setting somewhere in PT.

Sorry, this has turned into a PT issue rather than a SD3 issue but I’m sure some PT user here knows the answer.

Well,

if you have sample based tracks in Pro Tools, they stay the same when you change the BPM but if they are tick based, they should change as you edit the BPM.
BTW, why are you using the Standalone and draggin MIDI to Pro Tools instead of using the plugin inside Pro Tools?

John

Thanks for the reply.

I found out that the PT Conductor tool is what controls this and it has been my issue all along! So I turned it off, problem solved.

To answer your question – I have SD3 installed on my DAW machine as well as on a laptop which doesn’t have any DAW installed. I created the songs in SD3 on my laptop when I was away from the studio.
