Logic Tips - Understanding Quantize Strength

In this video, Jono Buchanan explores quantize strength within Logic Pro X. He demonstrates how applying different quantize strengths to several MIDI clips, rather than fully quantizing all parts, can result in a more musical performance. You'll learn why perfect timing isn't always ideal, how to adjust the quantizing of your MIDI parts and how to manually edit MIDI notes to suit the groove.

THANK YOU. Been looking for this for a while.

[@j-new6278]

Your skill set on the keys is impressive

[@soulstuckinseth]

Very interesting. I've learned so much in a relatively short time period. Reverse-reverbs, making an audio recording, understanding midi in logic etc...
Big thank you to Jono and all involved with MusicTech.

I really love those percussion sounds. Please may I ask which software sounds they are? Thanks

[@magnuseriksson8081]

How can you play drums so well on the keys_??

[@lukerandolph7482]

Can this be one with audio as well? quantize strength, on audio?

[@andrew6889-p5c]

So yeah, this entire series is fantastic. You shouldn’t be allowed to open logic until you’ve watch this whole series!
