Logic Pro X 10.5.1 Quick Sampler tempo question??

Hey guys,

I just updated to 10.5.1 and love the new sampler and drum machine designer but one issue I'm running into and just can't figure out is the tempo of a sample.. How can I change the tempo of a sample just a little bit without effecting the entire project tempo??

I have a vocal sample in the guick sampler and see I can change pitch and it changes the tempo at the same time. I also see I have the option to turn on flex for this particular sample and it keeps the original tempo.

I can hit follow tempo of my project to get my sample to be the right speed but...

My issue is that I have a longer sample running at flex time of 98 bpm on an earlier track so I can't change the tempo of the entire project to make my new sample be the tempo I want. Hopefully that makes sense... I want to be able to change the pitch of my vocal sample but also change the tempo of it separately but not effect the project tempo..

What am I missing?? It seems like it should be easy.

Thanks so much!

Hi there, what are the settings in Quick Sampler, could you post a screenshot of its window? I'd suspect that you have "Follow Tempo" switched on in Quick Sampler. If so, try switching it off. Though, it's very strange that tweaking a sample in QS would affect the tempo of the whole project somehow, to my knowledge it shouldn't work this way. But I might be missing something, of course.

As a quick workaround, you could bounce the longer sample (which is in Flex Time mode) in place to lock its current tempo, then continue to make adjustments to the vocal sample in QS. But with Flex Time switched off. Just an idea. Cheers!
