Join Christopher Brooks for an in-depth discussion in this video Using Elastic Audio, part of Pro Tools: Filmscoring.
Elastic Audio is a great tool for the Composer.…I'm sure that you've already experimented with it, using it to quantize audio.…We will look at how Elastic Audio enables you to adjust the tempo of an existing…piece of audio to match events in the picture.…Let's take our same cue and Enable Elastic Audio.…There are four different plug-ins or algorithms available in Elastic Audio,…depending on the sort of material that you're trying to change.…There is Polyphonic, Rhythmic, Monophonic, and Varispeed.…
We want Polyphonic because of the sort of cue it is.…Also, we want to check to make sure that we have selected Ticks.…This gives us the ability to adjust the tempo map and have the audio follow.…Let's have a listen to our cue with the Click on.…(Music playing with metronome tapping.)…At bar 12, it would be really great if the new phrase started as the picture faded up.…
Let's locate to bar 12 and identify that beat. Command+I identifies the beat…and makes an anchor.…Let's change the display to Analysis.…
