Fine-Tuning Your Analyzed Sample
1/16 Sensitivity
You can make manual adjustments once you’ve run Beat Analysis:
• Move the beat and note markers by clicking and dragging them.
• Add new beat or note markers by right-clicking the horizontal ruler, and
selecting Add Beat Marker or Add Note Marker.
• To delete a beat or note marker, right-click the marker you want to delete, and
select Delete Beat Marker or Delete Note Marker.
Shifting the Beats
Sometimes when you analyze a sample, Beat Analysis might confuse the first beat of a
bar, resulting in bar numbers that are a fraction of beat off to the right or left. This is
most common if your sampled audio emphasizes off-beats
You can shift all beat markers left or right by quarter beats by using the menu or key
commands:
•From the Sample Edit menu, select either Shift Beats 1/4 Beat Left or Shift
Beats 1/4 Beat Right.
• On your keyboard, press Shift + to shift all beats right, or Shift + to shift all
beats to the left.
Beat Parameters
Using the Beat Parameter options, you can change the beat number, beats per bar, or
tempo granularity.
To open the Beat Parameters dialog,
right-click the beat where you want your
change to begin.
When you open the Beat Parameters
dialog, notice the affected bar and beat are
listed in the dialog.
To keep track of a beat that has undergone
manual changes, look for bar/beat
indicators in boldface type.
