Excellent overview of this fantastic plugin. I downloaded it some time back but never really played with it, but this video has encouraged me to get back to it. Thanks
You can do that same stretch in Ardour without a plugin. I've stretched out things like snare his to make interesting, unearthly pad sounds. It uses fast fourier transforms to accomplish this. You can also change the pitch as you go in Ardour. All free.
Well many DAWs have similar programs that come bundled with them. I use Reeeaahhh from Reaper. This is one of many time stretch algorithms that come with Reaper. But to be fair, Paulxstretch has more bells and whistles. After all, Paul Nasca originally developed the software. Paulxstretch is also free.
This is great! A Synth I use (Avenger), does this too, but like any other tool- it does have it's own characteristics the other does not. Thanks for more toys! :)
Agreed! I have it running something all the time. Sometimes I'll generate some quick 30 second piece in Suno or Udio or something similar, and then stretch that thing out 195x to have it play over the course of a couple of hours. Perfect for my "working music" style.
I find I’m using it all the time to play while I work. Just with random audio on my drive or with short AI snippets that can then fill a room for hours.
Now I know what to do with some of the accidental instrumentals I created in Suno. I was curious about Band in a Box, can it backwards engineer a Suno song, i.e. can it take the music and work back to get the notation that could then be used by a real band?
Any idea why any Melody I put in the software just creates wierd high notes sound?! I even recorded your trumpet melody from your video and dragged it into the software but again it created some high note weak and wierd sounds. 😕 Nothing similar to it creates for you. I even recorded bass notes but still what was produced was weird high notes like scratching fork on metals a few blocks away.
@@contrarian8870 No, the technique is phase distortion in the frequency domain of long sections of audio, after a large Fourier transform of each section. It smears out time, but preserves frequency content. The result resembles granular synthesis to some extent, but sounds better (in my ears).
Oh this is so awesome, so happy I run into your video, thank you man!
Cool app. I think it can be used to create some relaxing ambient meditation sounds.Thanks for sharing.
Yes, perfect for that.
My man, you’re filling up my saved video list today!
Thank you for your effort in bringing knowledge about AI tools and tools that increase their usability
Incredible app. Wow. Never heard that kind of quality and/or effect. Thanks so much for this! Ben
Superb
Amazing software. I discovered it 5 years ago 😮 real magical shizzle
The best demostration and explanation .....nicely done
Excellent overview of this fantastic plugin. I downloaded it some time back but never really played with it, but this video has encouraged me to get back to it. Thanks
I'm using it right now to create background work music out of random 30 sec AI files I created for demos. So cool.
Excellent find here. Thank you the demo!
Nice, there’s an updated version. I downloaded Paul’s time stretch program a long long long time ago and still have it.
Nice and interesting software & presentation.
all of a sudden you have a backdrop suond for a Christopher Nolan movie. Unbelievable!

thanks!
this seems like a worthy plugin to add to the toolbox!
Hi Bob. Thanks for the great content ~ Subscribed! What app do you use for the moving images above your head in this video?
Fantastic finding
I'm already scared what my voice will sound like :) maybe my kids will start to respect me with this trick. Thanks a lot!
Superb!
Thanks!😊

Interesting, be good for backgrounds to slideshows
Amazing

This is gonna be real interesting using this with the song i made with Sora. Just tried one out and it sounded quite etheral.
And when i say Sora i meant Suno. Sorry brain is a little fried xD
allright, is sane sound either way lol@@mikaelasimonsen2017
Right? I have so much music I can repurpose!

What is the visualiser?
talk to me about that Liam Neeson, if you subscribe now clip at the end. 10:15 actual clip?
4:16: Had the same reaction.
😮😮😮😮
It’s cool but this time stretching tech has been around for 25 years.
Yes, the "Mammut" software from NOTAM is based on the same principle, long FFTs
I think Paulxstretch itself is close to 25 yrs old 😂
Isn't this basically granular synthesis? If so, it's been around since 1960-70's or so
