It's a hell of a time stretch... You can try to stretch with Cubase SX but most of the chances are that you will lose the original pitch. Good luck. I hear Ableton does it well, but i didn't try personally.
Everyone in the world is doing something without me |

In sx, right click on the wav, timestretch, MPEX algorithm, source tempo: 120 dest tempo: 140.
Sounds fine, no algorithm is gonna sound perfect.
I punched a 100bpm tune up to 150 and it sounded fine. Timing might get off a tiny bit, but you can cut the phrases up and move stuff around with Ctrl-Alt-Arrow.
Assuming you are using SX....

forget all that ...all you will get is bad sound.
there is a program called "beatburner" that can modify the bpm of anything to anything without ruining the quality too much.
thats what i use and it never failed me. |

calculate it - use Cubase BPM calculator, tap your space bar - find the original BPM |

Your method might work, but you are completely incorrect about Cubase SX. Just to make sure this thread remains factual. |

if you already DO know the bpms, try soundforge's pitch algorithm (you can lock the key and duration). I took vocals that were 180 bpm (drum n bass) and made them 133 bpm (for progressive) and it sounds perfect. Ive also tried timestretching vocals in Cubase and within 20 bpm it sounded just fine. |
