Live drum quantizing not moving events in phase

Hi!

Trying to quantize drums using the slices and crossfade-method in the quantize panel. After creating the slices, why doesn’t cubase move the slices on all the drum tracks in sync, keeping the phase? I have the tracks in a group folder, with group editing on of course.

I have been doing a lot of drum editing in pro tools before, so i’m used to the process but maybe i’m missing something here. But surely, the slices must be moved equally so to keep the phase? Sounds weird.

All the hitpoints are aligned first, but as soon as i click Quantize, they move different amounts. See pictures below…

What am i missing, or is drum quantizing just THAT much superior in pro tools?

I could not replicate this issue.
Have you made sure to give one of the tracks a good priority over the others?

Are my settings any different than yours (other than priority)?

Hey! Thanks for your response!

I actually had a couple of ticks on “rough”, and that seems to have offset everything different amounts… Disabled that, and now it works correctly.

I thought rough might work as Pro tools “exclude within” function, that hits that are close enough are left untouched.

Thanks! :blush:

“Rough” is actually a position randomizer.
Exclude within is probably “Safe Range”. Any event within that range of a grid point will not be quantized.

Good to hear it’s all ok now.

Can you please mark your own message, where you mention what caused the issue, as the “solution”? This way the topic will be marked as solved and others can the answers directly underneath the question.
