warped tracks in Ableton change kick volumes

[pascual]

Hello. So im preparing a live set, and im warping some original tracks to perform and sing over them. Im noticing that the warped tracks make the kicks change volumes in a very irregular way. As if messing pop the transients or something like this. This is something new I didn't notice before.

Any clues?

Some warping modes might mess up the transient, which would be consistent in feeling they're quieter or inconsistent. Beats or Complex Pro mode should work better.

I’m aware of the different warping algorithms. But this are full songs, and beats mode would actually sound worse.

Repitch is the generally accepted method for warping full tracks, because it preserves transients and sounds the most natural. Unless you are intending on deviating significantly from the originally recorded tempos of your tracks, it should be your first choice. It's been good enough for DJs for 40 odd years!
