Yes, Digital Performer has a built in beat detection engine that absolutely rocks and rivals beat detective in many respects.

hey brett have you been using it ? is it worth the buy ? I actually need a quantizing tool. I´ve checked the specs on the site. Does beat creator quantize the way beat quantizer does ? The thing is beat quantizer is 250 USD and beat creator is 100 USD

I only played with the demo version of Beat Quantizer, it's very very good as long as you don't have tempo changes or something other than 4/4... Maybe next versions will be better I hope...

Hey Shane,
I couldn't find this out on the MOTU site so I'll ask you. With DP beat detection can you edit multiple tracks simultaneously?
The really cool thing about the PTHD version is that you can "detect" on multiple tracks and it will throw away all of the hits that are very close together so you can move all your drum tracks by the same amount, maintaining the phase relationship between the mics.
It would be awesome if MOTU was doing this too at a much lower price point.
I use DP also. DP can analyze all your tracks seperately or you can analyze say the kick, and then apply those beats to the other tracks. If you need to do some fine tuning for the beats you can also add or remove them. Once you have that set, you can then make your edits or whatever simutaneously to all the tracks.

hmm, anything new here? i mainly use cubase, but don't really have a way to quantize the drums, other than the method posted here (which i've tried, but you can't control it and it puts ALL hits at the EXACT timings). soooo... anything new? beat quantizer? dp? i need something that can be used for tempo changes, multiple tracks, etc etc...
I've benn working with the Beat Quantizer guy to support multi tempo songs. Pretty much it wont involve actual tempos or time signatures. You will be able to import a audio click track along with your bounced drum files. The software will make slices from the click track and line up the grid with these. So all the snap points will be based on the click track and interval between.

hmmm, are you quantizing AUDIO?
multiple tracks, at the same time (phase accurate)?
how do you quantize multiple tracked drums in cubase then?

Go on the website and download the demo. If you want more than the demo, this is definately not the right place to ask !
