Looking to find the tempo of a song that’s only in the YouTube video and figure out if it keeps subtly changing and be able to correct the timing so it can be locked to the actual tempo it’s supposed to be? I will accept if it comes from the “museum”, it’s just a one-off thing and it seems to have inspired me and is pulling me towards my physical modeling plugins again

Here’s the video:

 

Will this require a paid subscription or is that only for the download services/file hosts?

 

No, this is the only thing… I think I already have an installer lying around so I’m practically almost set up. Just have to get back to my MacBook cause I left it with my love while I’m visiting her, I’ll be back tonight for sure so I will be able to get going… just need a tempo correction tool if there’s one within Logic, Bitwig, Reason or something

 

I think Macs come with Python already, so just try opening the terminal and run pip install yt-dlp.

The command to get the audio only is yt-dlp link-to-video -f 140

This will get you the best m4a available.

 

Maybe I'm not understanding what you want to do. There's lots of free online youtube downloaders to use. You can usually just get the audio alone. I also have an app, MediaHuman, when I want to download just the music from vids. Of course these will be whatever quality kbps it is, but adequate enough. Don't know how you can download the premium subscription high quality audio for free though. Maybe there is

Regardless, like the above poster says, bring the audio into your daw and have it do what you're looking to do.
