This is awesome. I just tried this in DP7 and it works exactly as shown here in DP8. I had no idea that this could be done. So simple and very useful! Thanks.
Since DP is an integrated MIDI/audio production environment, it seems to make sense to make working with the two worlds (MIDI and audio) as transparent as possible.
We are planning another video on audio and tempo in DP, which will cover manual adjustment of beats. You can do this in the Waveform Editor in the Beats tab.
I have been looking for these. I found a 5 part series discussing working with tempo and soundbites, but I did not catch the part about manually adjusting beats. Does this exist?
David it's been years...didn't know you were with Motu! Thank you for the audio beat detection info, very helpful. Question, what's the easiest way to calculate the tempo of an audio track?
Steve, did you ever contact MOTU tech support about the results you were getting? They might have some pointers. Were the results not good in terms of timing?
This saved some time, however there's a section in the song that it quantized wrong, giving me out of time drums in one or two places, how do I undo this?
I just tried this on strummed acoustic guitar. It sounded terrible. The efficacy of beat detection and quantize in DP seems to be very dependent on the type of track you're working on. I really wished this worked well with rhythm guitar. I have several clients that could really benefit from some help.
David: Thanks for responding. No I never contacted MOTU tech support. The results seem to work for timing. It just sounds AWFUL. Truly awful. I guess it's DP's attempt at time stretching and compressing. The audio quality is terrible. (Using this process with a simple country acoustic guitar track.) Do you think it's worth bringing this up with MOTU?

Love the Macintosh SE on the top shelf! :)
Thank you. Nice demo

Is there a way to find the beats manually and not automatically? Please answer, I am trying to find this for ages!!
We're working on a series of videos about tempo and this will be one of the topics covered.

Nice!
Yes it is a very effective technique.

Yes!

Can this be done across multiple drum tracks at the same time ?
What if you need to quantize audio that wasn't recorded in DP and doesn't have any tempo assigned to it? Is it possible to clean it up?
