Ableton/Live/UG/39 Audio Fact Sheet/02 Neutral Operations/03 Unstretched Beats-Tones-Texture-Re-Pitch Warping
- A clip at the Set's tempo plays unstretched. In Beats, Tones, Texture or Re-Pitch Warp modes that playback is neutral; Complex and Complex Pro are not.
- Tempo changes stretch only while they last. Tracks recorded at 120 BPM play back neutrally again once the tempo returns to 120 BPM.
- Arrangement tempo automation in Beats mode with transient preservation can cause artifacts. Preserving 16ths or using Re-Pitch avoids them.
- Grooves move Warp Markers, so a clip with a groove is never neutral, even at its original tempo.
