Macro to transpose and speedup audio

[rhye999]

Hey all, is there a way to make a macro that transposes and/or speedsup an audio region?

Hi and welcome to the forum,

can you explain what exactly you want to do and why you need a macro for that?

You can right-click events and change the transposition or speed-up value.

Thanks Lukas, I know that S1 doesn't have a looper but I am trying to approximate a similar workflow and one of the most used and interesting options of a looper is to slowdown a layer to half the speed. I am trying to incorporate that in a macro so that I can do it with just a key command!

Okay. Still not exactly sure... do you want this for performing live?

Anyway, there are two commands "Transpose Events Up" and "Transpose Events Down". You can find them in the Keyboard Shortcuts window or via Find Command.

Both commands have a "semitones" argument so if you want, to can create a macro that transposes events by a fixed number of semitones (12 for an octave, 7 for a fifth etc.).

You find more details in my Macro Documentation on s1toolbox:

Speed-up: There's currently no command for that so you will have to do this via the inspector or right-click context menu.
