When I see that I feel like ProTools wants to excrete itself through its own cyber-anus... because that's about how well it reads off my HDD at that point.

He would add way more "BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!!!!" and then sell the one in a million beringer converter to buy a rock, resulting in just enough processing power to add the jesus magic. Hell yeah.

He would have covered your studio in carpet, eliminating any need for any editing or dynamics processing. Because you would have already heard "music" in your room.

But only if your walls and ceiling were packed to the ying yang with the pink stuff.
The professional pink stuff, that they use for sound of course.

LOL It just doesn't stop. I never thought someone would be good for so much entertainment. What was the name of that site he was on.... "expertvillage".... or "villageidiot"?

That looks like a bitch .
Never had to do that, but then again maybe I should. I wonder if melodyne would be simpler for this process.

melodyne doesnt work for drum editing but anything to make it easier would be great!
and to the guy that was saying his HD was slowing down... try fading and consolidating as you go along. also, make sure and clear unused regions. it will vastly improve operating speed.
gotta love beat detective... i feel like it never ends!

I have started doing this with my latest sessions too. I wonder how common this is. I was afraid that it would kill the "swing", but I think there is more to it than just quantizing. The swing is very much in the sound of the hit IMO so the drums can swing even though it's quantized. What's your opinion?

Actually "Swing"comes from Swing Feel, so quantizing in Swing Feel mode in Beat Detective would keep "swing" but place it in perfect timing, maybe or not be what you want.
It´s pretty common, I can´t remember the last time I didn´t use Beat Detective. Not only on drums, almost everything.
You could also not quantize to 100% grid, meaning you can just tighten up the performance a bit, if the drummer is already good.

IMO the trick to not killing the feel is to fix what's broken and not to move every hit just for the sake of quantization.

Well, editing to perfect grid alignment is a fake performance, it´s suposed to sound machine like. Thus making impossible to any drummer in the world to reproduce such playing. So I could have spent 250 years tracking that song and in the end I would still have to edit, basically because it´s an aesthetic decision. Whether this is going to sound old in the future, i.e. 80´s reverb, we can´t predict, problably yes...
anyway, I have to go back to my chamber ov grid-aligned music and continue the never ending process...

Melodyne can edit drums.
My thoughts were witch program can do it better (well easier) and with more realisim.

I'd leave it as it is and if people think the drum parts suck, then the appropriate person carries the blame (the drummer!).

Well if there is like one part where the drummer fucks up the double bass drum part why not fix it. But yeah I agree editing the entire track better mean exstra money for the trouble.
