This is sort of a newbie question - I’m in my first weeks of using the programme.
I don’t want to play to a click track when I’m coming up with musical ideas; I’ve improvised freely onto the timeline without attending to or setting up a tempo or time signature. I’d like to quantize it all to a snapping grid for editing. I may find my tempo changes a bit so it would be good to selectively adjust/scale quantize ranges of notes. There are pauses between musical ideas which won’t fit any sort of tempo - so it won’t fit a grid without tweaking. Within most sections the meter’s regular enough that it’ll probably quantize if I scale it a bit and/or set the right meter for cubase’s grid.
- In general I’m hoping for suggestions on a workflow to most efficiently accomplish this.
In specific…
-
I’m not sure where the best place is to set up the snapping among adjusting the BPM, Time signature, fps (this is for a score), grid setttings, and tempo track.
-
I’ve discovered the TimeStretch selection mode for working in the timeline but my instinct is to do this in the Key Editor. Does that sound right?
-
Maybe there’s a tutorial somewhere folks can recommend.
thanks
) for “Merge Tempo from Tapping”, and also the TimeWarp tool. Should be enough to at least get you started on the right footing
