Swing
Using timing tools creatively swing the swing parameter, adjust the timing of offbeat notes relative to the grid, increasing the swing value introduces a shuffle or swing fill by delaying offbeat notes slightly while decreasing, the swing value reduces this effect. Using the swing function when quantis adds groove and swing to your music, imparting a natural and human like feel to rigidly quantize rhythms. I'm going to add swing to just the high hat pattern in this groove while keeping the kick and snare snapped to the grid. So you can hear the swing effect first, I'll play the groove of slightly out of time. High hats. Notice how extreme levels of swing can make the drummers fill out of time. Subtlety is often the key when using timing tools creatively. So let's open the media editor and then open the inspector. And now let's quantize this high hat part to 160 swing A, let's now change this to 1/8 swing f this time, it'll swing the notes and quantize them to the nearest 1/ beat divisi...
on. Let's now increase the swing amount and the inspector and you should be able to hear the difference for Now though, let's change the quantize setting to 1/16 notes and let's put the swing amount back down to 0%. Experiment with different swing values to find the groove that best suits your music. Subtle swing values, add a gentle swede to the rhythm while more pronounced swing values create a more pronounced shuffle feel. Experiment with combining swing with other creative techniques such as velocity adjustments, automation and effects processing these additional elements can further enhance the rhythmic feel and depth of your music. Keep the musical context in mind when a blind swing, different dramas and styles may benefit from varying degrees of swing. So tailor your approach to suit the specific needs of your project.
