Hi Guys,

When I record melodies etc, I often get this issue:


Which means that it wont loop perfectly, How do I get my recorded notes to fit perfectly so when it loops there isnt a gap.

It seems sometimes I get lucky and it doesnt have a gap so then loops perfect and other times not.

Thanks
 
like in cubase or any other program, sometimes, you can set the quantinize to 1/16th note quantinize and it'll fix it for you. like i said sometimes it gives you want you want. In Reason i just move the slider over till its like 4 bars make a drum loop and its perfect. or sometimes you can take the snap feature off (snap- is where the slider snaps in place by it self) and then move the slider in the exact place you want it till its perfect and copy paste the rest. loop loop loop. and sometimes your timing could be off too.
Im still learning right now myself. and sometimes ppl wont help you so you really gotta digg and search yourself.

i think some ppl think, "if i help this person, he could get better than me" or if I help a person out its just more competition in the music biz you feel me? and then the person who needs help might give up.
sooo yeahh.

Is there a way to stretch it to fit?

go in the piano roll and highlight you midi notes and hold shift and drag the edge of the note and it should time stretch.
 
well to get that perfct loop with good timing, i suggest you play the loop and while its playing use tap( by you tempo settings) to get the actual loop tempo, than it will be so perfect that youll be able to use the loop with out a doubt
 
its also possibly not totally your timing... are you using ASIO drivers??? cause if youre just using the WDM drivers that may cause your notes to lag, or you hear the metronome click after it actually happens in the program, and press the keys late... the less latency you have, the better... but if your processor is too slow then youll get the jummpies, and the nasty sound glitches... so play with the latency settings until you get it just right, and also change your snap from none to 1/4 beat... then youll always be on a quarter beat, so even if you're off it wont sound as bad... it might even sound better
 
i like my kicks to be abit late. this gives it that hiphop boomboom pow, well you mast have the ears to understand the choise of lateness. if aim wrong than help me

If you looked at the timing you can see thats it clearly the timing

it doesn't fit a whole stanza and too long for half a stanza

actually its not clearly the timing... latency is another possibility... the plugin Atmosphere itself is also a possibility, certain plugins... Atmosphere and M1 for instance are notorious for not responding to midi when the latency of the DAW or interface is too high... or when using WDM drivers instead of ASIO
 
Yeah latency sucks, but it can truly be anyone of these things we've said. So no one is truly wrong. I have a 2ghz processor and still get latency with 3gb of ram. So yeah try all these things we've said it should help you without a doubt.
