    How long does it take for Production on a Track

    How do I sync acapellas in Protools??

    Hitz here...been a long time. but my question is, how do i do this? i have Talib Kweli's "good morning" and Jay-Z's "Cant knock the Hustle" and a bunch others.. i know these are hard MC's to remix, cause of their flows, but how do i go about doing this in Pro Tools. i know a metronome is needed..
