If you timestretch a sample, you change its length (the amount of time for which it plays) without altering the tone. Timestretching has nothing to do with speed, but is to do with length. Middle C on the keyboard plays the sample at true pitch - moving the sample up or down the keyboard from there will increase / decrease the pitch. On a program like FL you can alter pitch by assigning the sample to keys on the piano roll (or by smaller increments in another edit window). Same in reverse - if you pitch down, the record will both take longer to play and sound lower in tone.

As the track speeds up this also has the effect of making the pitch/tone higher. Imagine the pitch control on a record player - the faster the record spins, the faster the track (or sample plays). Pitch is the speed at which the sample plays. Pitch is for change the tone of the sample and time streching is for moving up or down the speed of the sample. Mondolagarto I think i dont know how to to use pitch and time streching. Can everyone explain how to sample correctly or what are the basics? The diference between edison and slicex? (far as i know, slicex are better to chop drums) And how to use the time streching and pitch in the right way? Again, sorry for the bad english and hope someone help me. But every time i play its sounds 'the whole sound'.

And also tried Edison and cut the parts and drop it on the fpc. I know theres a lot of ways to do it: I tried drop the mp3 on the playlist and cutting the part i like, and time streching to the bar (i even dont know how to use it without changing the pitch and speed of the sample) I tried to use slicex, put markers and play it from the piano roll, but i cant do it properly cause every marker has a diferent duration and dosent fit on the bar when i play it.

Everytime i tried to make a beat, it sounds messy and out of time. I have a problem: I dont know exactly how to sample. In from argentina (sorry for my bad english) and i started to produce in fl studio.
