. Excellent!

[Fluxpod]

Thanks.

[iSiStOy]

some latency on some tracks is heard though. You might have to export track by track and check for each one's beginning in some wave editor...

[Fluxpod]

Thats actually not latency. Just not 100% on the grid.

[iSiStOy]

Efficient shuffle then. I am so used to listening to electronic 4/4 stuff, that I should apply some more as well.

[iSiStOy]

Of the good idea to subscribe to Z: I discovered that you can quickly create a shuffle "grid" with Cubase, by just recording it from quantization functions on an existing part (say, one recorded from you preferred hw sequencer). Then you can apply it to any other part in any project!!!
This is excellent (sorry if that looks like a trivial tip to anyone)

[braincell]

Very nice. It would be good for a sci fi movie.

I am experimenting with the make quantize groove from audio function in Cubase.

[iSiStOy]

I tested it with midi events in sx3 and it's just great.
I didn't gave it a try with audio though... Plz give us some feedback about that.

[braincell]

Alright, I will do a demonstration today. My sense of timing is very poor so it would be good to have feedback on this. Sometimes I think I'm getting a placebo effect on grooves or I can't tell which groove I like best. The match midi to audio function is intended to make rhythm tighter with an audio track, not to create a great groove.

[iSiStOy]

ahh, I can't have Cubase to switch back to english.
The function I used:
Right click on any midi container in the project window, then go to Advanced Quantization->Container to groove (conteneur vers groove in french). Then the quantization grid is adapting itself automatically.

[iSiStOy]

Thanks for the "match midi to audio" function.
Now I feel more & more that I will have a use for that even if my keyboard playing is still bad...

[Neutron]

That is really good! it would also make a good name for a scope device. "Track Desintegrator"

is that a little SB404 i hear?

[braincell]

I tested it with midi events in sx3 and it's just great.
I didn't gave it a try with audio though... Plz give us some feedback about that.

I just tried it with a solo sax track and I tried it with a Peter Gabriel solo vocal from a remix contest and no matter what adjustments I tried , the timing sounded like total crap. Maybe I'm not using it right. I don't know what the problem is or if this feature is any good at all. Both sounded fine to me with the MIDI hard quantized like I usually do.

[iSiStOy]

It looks like a sensible thing (of course it is, am I stupid).
Your idea to apply some groove from solo vocal track to a sax one is interesting.
Have you tried to other way (quantizing the vocals from the groove found in your sax part)?

[braincell]

Tried quantizing audio and it sounds choppy when the audio is sliced and moved. I am not sure why that is an option.

[Fluxpod]

Thanks guys glad you like it.
@Neutron yeah a little sb404 is in there.Love that synth even if the sequencer drives me nuts sometimes.

[iSiStOy]

Love that synth even if the sequencer drives me nuts sometimes.

Me too. Never tried the synchronization through asio audio signal but could be worth it...

[Fluxpod]

See First Post.

Respect!
