I´m thinking to buy ST2 or SS2 if it really covers the following feature: Is it possible to load a .wav file and play it in realtime over +-2 octaves without being changed the duration/speed of the played sample because of the (Time)-Stretch engine? And all this in a good quality (near the quality of the original sample)?
Thanks in advance

EDIT: No answer needed. Just saw that my OS doesn´t fulfill the specs (I´m on Win ME).

It depends on the type of sample.

STRETCH works best on monoaural monophonic samples.

Even still, +/- two octaves might sound smooth, but it probably won't sound "natural" because most acoustic instruments change their sound in more complex ways over such a large range.

Forever,

Kim.

SampleTank 2 would be the choice for that purpose.

Stretch can do that better than most but it is still a science of hit and miss. It sometimes does miracles but not always.

Get a new faster computer with an updated OS so you can use all of this great stuff! Or not.

Hope that answers the no need to answer questions.
