HELP! New and can't match beats!! -ACID Product Family

Subject:HELP! New and can't match beats!! Posted by: tenser Date:7/24/2002 2:32:35 PM Hi, sorry for the beginner question! I'm getting good at Acid 3.0, but i can't do some simple DJ stuff with it. Can you tell me how to mix tracks together, DJ style? I beatmap a track, and paint it in. Then i beatmap another song, paint it in, and the options seem to be "change project tempo to match new track" or not. If I do change it then the first track is all wrong, but if I don't the new track is always playing at the wrong BPM (not what the beatmapper just said it should be). How do I get them (and others) to work together?? Thanks for helping!!
