Humanizing / Antiquantizing

[Jevil]

I wonder if it exist a plug in or action to humanize midi tracks.

I do not play keyboards, so I write all synths and orchestra vsti with Cubase's pencil, but it is so prefectly played by the computer that is completely dehumanized.

It would be nice to have a plug in applied to dthe midi track that could change randomly velocity and displacement of the notes in the range you want.
I'll try to explain with an example.
Imagine your track (keyboards, drums...or whatever) quantized and all notes at the same velocity. The idea would be to set range for random velocity between 100-120, and antiquantizing of the notes, both displacement and length between 0-10 ms.

I know it is possible to do it manually but itss fucking tiring and boring.

Sonar has this... groove quantisation and just randomising.

DKFH has a humanizer too

Cubase has this also. Select your midi track. On the left where you have all the options for that channel there is something like midi properties or so (don't know what the menus are called in English). You can select what you want to randomize (Velocities, quantizing,...) and how much. I use something between +/- 5-15 for the velocities on my drum tracks.

hmmm going to try this asap

Yep cubase has it.

It's under the midi menu. There is a setup midi or something to that effect. You have to have the midi selected in order for it to work. I can post screen shots if you need.

I think pro tools does it a tad better though.

I'm astonished, i thought I was a Professor in Cubase!
Thanks, I will give a try.

 

[greyskull]

beat detective has it too!
used it on some programmed stuff to incredible effect!

I use the random velocity + a small percent of swing.

I wish there was something that would randomly nudge a beat a percentage forward/backward or something

 

[HeadCrusher]

^that can be done at the same place as the above in cubase. i think the name of the parameter is "position".

This is how I do my drums usually. Velocities between 80 and 127 and I move the notes +\- 5.

anything comparable to this in reaper, or possibly a freeware plug-in??

 

[TheDriller]

I think reaper has a plugin that does that, probably called "humaniser" if i remember correctly.

 

[Sean in Silence]

Yup
Reaper has a plugin called humanizer that can alter the velocity and the timing of the hits by however much you program it to
