One way to get around triggering the Hi-Hat is to only analyze the kick, snare, and toms. After you've done that, select the rest of the drum group and then separate and conform. The biggest issue I had editing live drums on my last project was cutting off some of the transients, so I had to adjust those, but it worked pretty well otherwise.
I had to remember how to do this, idk why I'm using the sensitivity to just hit the kicks and snare which are barely off the metronome, and it will pull some hits a full best back from where it was, I can figure out how to fix this lil
@@ViolinistJeff I have found, from experience, that elastic audio is great for just one single track/source as opposed to beat detective being great for multiple tracks from the same source when it’s rhythmic
Or even in certain cases, elastic audio is great for something like a bass track with a DI and an amp. You just group them together and elastic audio them as a whole.
@@mixwithjacob Yeah, I guess if one were to use elastic audio on something rhythmic like one of the drums, you could possibly notice some distortion in the compression/expansion, right?
@@ViolinistJeff Not necessarily but beat detective just does this better - it's like if I was editing by hand but it does It for me. Elastic audio can work on anything, but more room for error depending on how you analyzed it and a bunch of other factors. I stick with beat detective for drum kits and elastic audio's WARP function for individual things like bass, vocals, little nudges with keys etc.
Mentioning phasing, don't forget to phase lock your miked tracks before group quantizing! The distances between mics by a good studio engineer will be 3:1 rule, but there is no guarantee the tracks you get will be set up properly.

dude! listen when I say this... Thank You!
Any time!

A super tight drummer was the best example for a quantize plugin.
The worst, because if you have sloppy drummer you just will be stunned
Straight ahead! I’ll use it from now on. Thanks.
Dude! Listen to this when I say you are awesome
Wow, thanks!
Well explained. Good on ya, lad.
🙏🏻
this was super helpful, thank you!!
You're so welcome!

Good luck! Sometimes its a case of grouping
Question: When is it better to quantize using elastic audio instead of beat detective?

Awesome ty!
🙏🏻
thanks
For those who don’t use pro tools is there anyother way to do this?
Sorry i cant help there 🙏🏻
Will this work on vocals?
@@kdhansome i wouldnt recommend this for vocals instead id look up using Elastic Audio’s Warp function

Followed instructions exactly from video....and its not working...on most current version of PT Ultimate
