Timestretch - not great quality

 I have to say that I find the time-stretching algorithm to be quite weak compared to those I use in Ableton, Octatrack and others.

 

I generally turn it off, which is fine when you are sampling into the current project (and don't plan on many tempo changes), but it's a pain when you go to import samples from other projects that might have different tempos, as the quality can sometimes be a show stopper (even if drenched in FX!)

 

I wonder if Pioneer are working on improving it?

If you're talking timestretch, yes. Not being able to adjust the quality is bad. I have some loops that don't even need timestretched because they are at the proper tempo already and when you turn it on, it makes them unusable.

Yes, that's what I meant to type. Edited. Thx.

Most loops sound great though. I think the ability t declare what type of sound the loop is would be helpful. Every other timestretching box I've used, you told the gear whether it was a beat, a voice, a polyphonic instrument or whatever and it adjusted the algorithm to suit that type of sound.

same here guys.  I cant believe how bad it is. because of the poor sampling engine im experiencing additional "off-tempo|  pulses on various FQ levels. [ when Pitched down -> slow pulses etc ) That is sadly unacceptable for a professional live producer. 

I am waiting for the update release then I ll make my mind up wether to get something else. 1.4k its quite a lot to ask for, especially considering other tempting products on the market for 3rd of its price.  peace yo !
