I'm looking for a good article (or 1st hand knowledge) about how people approach remixing and to begin with identifying the tempo/beat: I heard that there are tools out there that allow you to tap along with the beat so you can identify the right tempo?, e.g. say you want to take a a four bar segment from an old track and you want to mix and match it up with some Acid loops or something.. how do you calculate the tempo, are there tap type tools for PC?

Any other articles or web site you can point me too would be greatly appreciated (obviously I'm talking about remixes where you don't have the source tracks available in an unmixed format).

Thanks,

SPINSTER,

I appreciate your helpfulness (and apparent good nature), however... it was entirely appropriate to post this question in two completely different locations as I couldn't be certain that I would get a response in both (and keep in mind that I posted both prior to you having responded) ;-).

My recommendation, and the practice I have followed here and in other forums, is if I see the same question in more than one thread, I'll post the link (as you did), however, it is wrong to imply there is no value in posting a question such as mine in two related but different groups.

"you SPIN me right round, baby, right round, like a record baby" ;-)

Cheers
