beat matching in P5 v2 .... Yes or No ?
I spoke to someone from Edirol UK who has recently seen a Project 5 v2 demo. He implied that that audio clips added to the mix in real time beat match or sync in an Ableton Live way.
To anyone who knows, is this actually correct ?
He also said that he was very impressed with the demo and that the upgrade price will be announced very soon.

P5 v2 will have Kinetic-inspired Groove Player thingie that is Ableton Live like and will play back an 'acidized' audio clip in time to the project's tempo/bpm
Kinetic supports quite a few Ableton Live like features including adding or switching clips or clip sets in real time so I expect P5 v2 will follow.
And if he's impressed then I'm impressed.
Anticipation toward the April release is definitely building -- then we'll know with greater certainty what and how these one line feature descriptions actually work.

P5v2 will support syncing (acidizing) audio to the current project tempo. It will work much like SONAR's "groove clip looping" feature.

:10:, if you don't want an audio clip to sync with the project's tempo, then you shouldn't put it through the acidize rinse cycle and it will be 'stuck' at the tempo your recorded it at if this is can be considered a feature, it's avaialble now in P5 v1.5 i think once you acidize an aduio clip, it's compelled to sync with the project AKAIK edit[ and doesn't that Nick grow more handsome with every post?]

Thank you for the responses.
Please excuse my lack of clarity about this and consider a further question:
In Ableton Live, when you add a clip (audio or midi) it will NOT start playing immediately but rather, start on the beat ie beat synced.
If this was done with drum beats, you would switch OFF the pitch shifting and just let it sync to time. The added drum beats would stretch or shrink AND be beat aligned.
When I played with Acid some years ago, I remember having to move the drum clips to visually align them.
Will P5 v2 beat match in this way ?
Thanks again
PStar.

since Nick indicated it would work much like Sonar's Groove Clip Looping feature you may want to post on the Sonar forum to get an answer to your specific questions re: how Sonar currently does it
for one thing I think a distintiion must be made between adding a clip to a track in real time and adding a clip to a Kinetic like Groove Player
The Groove Player is more likely to sync on a given beat or bar boundary -- where adding a clip to a track is more likely going to play where you place it
so both models Ableton and Acid impl;ementations would likely be supported depending on where you place the clip
are you currently using either of these apps or something else in a live situation?

He's looking very dapper; I'll bet that he brought Marsha in for a landing with that outfit. Polyester is my guess. There's an outside chance that it's made of 50% Dacron [tm]. As opposed to the Project5 t-shirt, which is evidently made of 100% dark matter [tm] .
