Like I use FL Studio, and I know how to sync teh acapella to the BPM I'm using (135- for progressive trance) but I'm trying to get an acapella at 67.5, and keep it there, then make my beat 135. I also have Cool Edit, so there may be some way to do it on there, idk...

any idears? thanks in advance! Smilie_PDT

another question would be, how would you go about using an acapella that's 106.64 bpm for a song that's 135 bpm? Like, halfing it may work, but I'm not sure. The acapella I'm working with is Stardust's Music Sounds Better With You, which is at 106.64 bpm.

Im not a user of either of them daws but halving the speed is easy.
Using the timestretch feature, type the original tempo as 100bpm.
Then timestretch to 50bpm.
Easy.
You may want to experiment with a few different algorythms for such a drastic shift.
Some will sound better than others.

Do what Chunky said for the timestretch...

I would go up to 135 instead of 67.5. 106.64 is closer to 135 (by about 30) than it is to 67.5 (almost 40).

Definitely speed up Stardust. That pella would sound terrible slowed down. Its already heavily processed so would cause lots of nasty artifacts (sounds) and would sound unnaturally slow. No human would ever sing that style that slow.
