So helpful! I was unaware of many of these possibilities - or at least unaware of how they actually worked. The uncommon tuplet settings are more common in orchestral arranging to create rhythmically ambiguous atmospheric effects on one hand or jarring rhythmic incongruities on the other. I wish the Q tuplet settings went further to larger numbers! You can use time stretch for those situations but the Q approach is easier and cleaner. I'll be reviewing this video - it's a lot of info. Thanks again for this great series!!
In this video, I explain the following: 1. Advanced Quantization Techniques in the piano roll editor and region inspector. 2. The difference between region-based and event-based quantization. 3. How to adjust quantization strength. 4. How to work with triplet grooves. 5. How to work with swing grooves. 6. How to work with region-based Q parameters, such as Q-Swing, Q-Strength, Q-Velocity, Q-Length, Q-Flam, and Q-Range. 7. How to work with atypical quantization values, like 5-tuplets, 7-tuplets, and 9-tuplets.

Yes, I should be able to convert myself into Josh in the moments I work with Logic. I could have so much better results if I had known that earlier (refers to all your tutorials). So far I only knew the very basics of quantization, but this tutorial is extremely helpful for my work with Logic (mostly MIDI). Thanks so much! 💪🏻👏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻
Great video, thank. This is actually the first time (!!) that I watched one of your videos and I was missing something: I was hoping that you also cover "Groove Templates"... but maybe you've done that already in another video or plan to do this in the future? This is also "quite niche" but a while ago I was using this for a project and found it quite helpful.
I have never had groove templates work out well for me. It's a useless function for me personally. I'll revisit it and see if it's something worth covering.
Hey Josh, great video! Does pulling down the Q-stregnth nudge the notes to the right of the grid, or to the left of the grid? Or does it depend on whether or not the initial performance was ahead of the beat vs behind the beat?
It depends on what side of the grid line the note is in its original position. So let's say it's 100 ticks to the right of the nearest 8th note, and you quantize at an 8th note. But then change the Q-Strength to 50%. The note will now be 50 ticks to the right of the nearest 8th note grid line.
Thank You !!! Until now I never knew that the swing values in the piano editor and the region editor were ACTUALLY DESIGNED to work differently - I was just dumfounded and irritated that they never seemed to match. I still find the piano edior's definition of swing percentages to be incredibly weird and illogical, _("Full Swing" SHOULD be the same thing as the first and third note of a triplet. Nothing else makes sense!)_ but now I at least understand that they are designed differently and that it's not a bug.
I roll chords when playing midi guitar in on my controller keyboard to mimic the effect of a strum but usually end up having to do a lot of tidying up by manually spacing each one. Is there a way to 'quantise' these so the notes of the rolled/strummed chord are all the same amount apart?
Hi .... In logic pro X, we can have 5, 7, 9 notes in one bar of 4/4 time signature using truplet quantization, but how can we have 5, 7, 9 notes over one crotchet note to get 16th note quintuplet / 5 notes, 32nd note septuplet/ 7 notes, and 32nd note nontuplet / 9notes?
Another GREAT video! I've noticed many of my songs is in Swing 1/8 E. I like that feeling.
Thanks again for making these!

Great
Bestest.. More power to you... Thanks a lot
Thanks so much!
👍👍super helpfull lesson
Timeless tutorials.
Now your talking bro!!! 👍🏽
But is there a way to only quantize note lengths or note offs? Another niche function, but I’ve wanted it a couple of times.

Hi, namaste 🙏🏻
Could you plz show grid division settings for 5/4 and 5/8 signatures ?
Hello, is there a way to quantize automations?
Does this work for audio tracks as well?🤔
If you use these with Flex Time, yes. We'll get to simple Flex Time at some point soon.
@@MusicTechHelpGuy you’ve been very helpful! Keep up the good work and thanks for getting back to me.
Neat! 😁👍
