I sent my drummer a guide track and click and he has recorded a drum track in another DAW (Studio One).
He’s exported the stems and I now have them. However, he’s somehow managed to set his DAW up to 132 BPM for the song, which is actually 130 BPM - that’s how I set it up in Cubase.
So when I import the stems into Cubase, the drums play quicker than the actual guide song.
How do I fix the drum stems to make them run to 130 rather than 132? Hope this makes sense.
As a first attempt, and as the two bpm are nearly the same, I would try, in the Pool window, to slightly lower the tempo of all the imported drum clips and, still in the Pool window, activate the Musical Mode for each of them.
I’m not sure that you do want to lower the Tempo setting on the Audio. If it was recorded at 132 then the Tempo shown in the Pool should reflect that and enabling Musical Mode should allow it to follow the Project’s Tempo.
@fozzplod before adjusting anything post a screenshot of the Pool showing the Audio Files. That way we can understand how things are currently setup and not just basing advice on assumptions.
