David Nahmani Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I don't understand the question. If you want to change the tempo, leave the time signature alone, and simply change the tempo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
save Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 thanks David yes but the new track is going to be in 4/4. is that possible for the acapellas to be recorded in 6/8 though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookatthisguy Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 You want to record something new in 6/8 that's going into a 4/4 project? Is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruari Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I think you need to read up on simple & compound time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eriksimon Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 i have to remix a track written in 6/8! Well, then you remix it in 6/8! Or what is it you're asking? You can also make it a 2/4 or 4/4 with everything in triplets, but that may not be practical or even musical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ski Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 is that possible for the acapellas to be recorded in 6/8 though? If the original track is in 6/8, then of course the vocal is going to be in 6/8. Whether or not you can remix the track and have it sound legit all depends on the feel of the vocal. So why don't you just change the time signature to 4/4, put down a four on the floor kick, and see how it sounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eriksimon Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 192/128 = 6/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Baker Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 2 bars of 6/8 will become one bar of 4/4, with an eighth-note triplet feel. (1/12 quantization in Logic terminology). "Womanizer" by Britney Spears is an example, as was "Tainted Love" from long ago. That feel could correctly be notated as 4/4 (with triplets), or as 6/8, or as 12/8.
