How To Make Any Sample Fit Your Project Tempo in FL Studio 20

In this quick video I will show you how to make any loop fit the tempo of your project automatically.
This technique can sync samples and loops to your project BPM so that you can use loops at a different speed or tempo in your project without adjusting the pitch.
It works for both percussive loops and melodic loops, so it's great for both drum loops and instrument stems.

Step 1 - Find the sample tempo
Step 2 - Use the "fit to tempo" tool to automatically sync the sample with your project
Step 3 - Manually adjust any loop or sample if it's not working as expected

Tips -
Be sure to select or deselect "Stretch" at the top left of the playlist when adjusting audio clips
Try experimenting with pitch, Sometimes it's okay of the pitch of a drum loop increases or decreases, it can create a really unique tone!

How many of you produce with loops?

I sometimes experiment with it and really like the results, but it doesn't always sound like "me"!

In the mix: let's hear the unsync one.
Me: Actually, it sounds good
In the mix: Pretty awful
Me: Guess I don't have sense of beat and tempo.

You're the number one resource for FL Studio. Honestly, I finally learned compression, buses and EQ because of you.

If you use the scroll wheel on the time stretch knob it will autosnap to the grid for a really fast adjustment

After searching for a straight answer for weeks, on internet, on how to do this I found your video and it was PERFECT! Thanks for leaving the video up. It was spot on.

[Randshowz]

I have been searching this tutorial for ages, thanks so much bro. You are the real deal

[ExsultoMusic]

I knew about time stretching and BPM switching, but I didn't know all of that stuff in depth. Thanks Michael ! <3

[soulzampaify]

I was just struggling with an acapella to line up. You just saved my life, ... as always. Thank you so much!!!

[nokturnal]

I've seriously been struggling with using samples and lining up my kick drums. I can't tell you how much help this was, I was able to do what I've been struggling with for 2 days in 2 minutes. Your videos have been helping out, but this one especially was extremely useful, thank you for all the help man! Genius!

[iannmassoud]

We love you, Mike, for what you're doing!

[Darfail]

Big thanks for all your soft-spoken and thoughtful tutorials they really helped motivate me to start producing again

I kept going around this by sending loops to a slicer and then doing some adjustments there. Your method is relatively quicker and more convenient.
