Changing the timing of a recording
When you record a performance, there may be problems you’d like to correct. For example, the note
timing may not have been as accurate as you would like. Or, you may have recorded without using a
metronome and strayed from the tempo in one direction or another.
SONAR has two types of commands that you can use to modify the timing of a clip.
The
Quantize
command alters the timing of the notes in your recording so that they fit a time grid.
The grid can have fixed time intervals or intervals that are based on some existing note pattern.
The
Fit to Improvisation
command, on the other hand, sets up a series of tempos that fit the
material you have recorded. Here’s a summary of when to use each type of command:
These two types of commands are discussed in the following topics.
See:
Use this command
To do this
Quantize
Change the timing of the notes you’ve recorded to fit with the tempo of a project
Fit to Improvisation
