Hey I was just wondering if there was some kind of formula, or chart available to determine what the exact length of a sample needs to be to fit into, let's say a four bar sequence at 96bpm. (It could be anything; two bar loop at 120bpm etc.) Or am I thinking about this the wrong way. I've tried the timestretch feature but sometimes it garbles the sample up pretty bad. In what order do you guys usally construct your beats? ie. pick a bpm, lay some drums and then find some samples that work or the other way round?

Look for the timestretch calculator in USEFUL LINKS below.
