  • Do your step sequencer drums and piano roll beats sound robotic, mechanical, and like they're stuck in the uncanny valley of "fake drum machine" hell? Ryan is here to help! When this topic came up on a recent livestream, he realized he's never made a video that needed to change!
    With just a few clicks and a few taps into a basic mic you can extract the human feel from audio and apply it to your MIDI programming for an instant "achievement unlocked" level up to natural groove!

    Dude..... I play most of my beats with my midi controller, but still, this is going to be massively useful! Just tested it out real fast and it worked perfectly... man! That's going to be damn useful!

    • @ReasonStudios
      @ReasonStudios  Год назад +15

      Cool! One thing I didn't mention in the video is that if you play beats on a MIDI controller regularly, then you can try skipping the audio to MIDI conversion part and just record a MIDI clip with your own human feel and Get the Groove from that. I usually still prefer the audio process because it handles dynamics differently than my controller playing does but try both!

    This is easily one of the most useful and helpful vids that have come out of this channel. I've never delved into the groove functions and was always a little perplexed by how to use them. Granted, I should RTFM more than I have done. I'd definitely like to see the groove functions expanded upon more. One thing that I thought about during this vid is that not all of the musicians would play perfectly in time to that one groove, so even more imperfections need to be programmed in; one groove for each musician that's based on the drummer's groove.
    Keep vids like this one coming please Ryan.

And as always great tutorial from Ryan! keep it up. PS: the "commit to groove" command is also a fantastic way to understand what happened with the MIDI notes.
