Fast quantizing using Pro Tools' Beat Detective! | Quantize your drums in less than 5 minutes!

Quantize your drums in less than 5 minutes!
Hey, friend!
Beat Detective, my saviour of hours of manual drum editing.
This is a POWERFUL tool that will analyze, chop, move, and crossfade your audio for a tight and natural performance!
I mainly use this for percussion and drum performances but I imagine it can be used for any kind of rhythmic part!
Let's dive into how to set up, use and become a BOSS of Avid Pro Tools' Beat Detective.
Also, apologies for the change of scenery 😅
Being sick, I haven't been to the studio and will be filming a few from home before the holidays in my less-than-impressive home office.
Enough chit-chat, let's dive in!

A super tight drummer was the best example for a quantize plugin.

Dude! Listen to this when I say you are awesome

thanks

[@corknakovastein]

I had to remember how to do this, idk why I'm using the sensitivity to just hit the kicks and snare which are barely off the metronome, and it will pull some hits a full best back from where it was, I can figure out how to fix this lil

[@mixwithjacob]

Good luck! Sometimes its a case of grouping

[@kdhansome]

Will this work on vocals?

[@mixwithjacob]

@@kdhansome i wouldnt recommend this for vocals instead id look up using Elastic Audio’s Warp function

[@joelndam8659]

For those who don’t use pro tools is there anyother way to do this?

[@Exitof99]

Mentioning phasing, don't forget to phase lock your miked tracks before group quantizing! The distances between mics by a good studio engineer will be 3:1 rule, but there is no guarantee the tracks you get will be set up properly.
