MP3 and Transpose

calaf · Post by **calaf** » Tue May 14, 2013 11:45 am

Quick questions:

Does the PA3X have the ability to transpose an MP3?
If so, can it be saved as a new file?
I didn't find the answer clearly in the bits of the manual I have read?

If not does anyone know of any freebie software that could do this job. I don't want to buy as I only need one song converted.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Yes & No

Transpose works fine - saving as new file not possible.

I am sure there is software to do it - there was an old package "Adobe Audition" which does it perfectly.

Cheers

Pete,

Thanks for the prompt reply. Thanks for the idea of Audition. If memory serves me that became Adobe Premier and I think I know someone who has that.

Appreciated
Best wishes

If you have it in Songbook you can automatically transpose it under Book Edit 2.

Hi John

I think calaf was actually wanting to save a transposed MP3 as a new MP3 file (unless I have misunderstood).

Cheers

Pete

Transposing an audio file is a little tricky, because everything (including drums and non-pitched instruments get transposed. If you already have a recording software, you can transpose the audio first. Then, playback the file and record the output of the keyboard in your DAW.

I came across "Transposr", link at bottom of post.

An online resource that seems to have done a reasonably decent job.

Thanks to all who have offered suggestions and comment.

hmm, I don't know why I have a strange feeling about this, but try it and let us know.
If it's only one song that you want to transpose, i'll help you with it.

I take your point about the difficulties that could be encountered with the percussion/drums/non pitched instruments. Fortunately, this track is a simple arrangement with a limited range of voices.

For that it seems to have come out OK. I will have another try with a more complex arrangement and see h=what happens with that!

As ever, members of the Forum show that generosity of spirit that means, while I don't often post things, I know that when I need to I can gain consistently good advice and support.

Thanks again.
Chris

Audition is audio editing program

Premier is different. It is video editor.
