Video: Elastic Audio Drum Editing in Pro Tools LE February 11, 2009

Elastic audio is a very powerful tool to use while editing drums. I show you how to manually create warp markers and move drums into sync.

Nice video!

Thats a great method for correcting a single hit, but that would take forever to tighten up timing for the entire track.

I’d love to see how you adjust for the entire drum part…

Thanks Connor!

Thanks. You are correct, this is the video on manually correcting drum hits.

Now, ideally, your drummer can play in the groove for most of the song, and you can just move the few out of time hits.

In a future video, I was planning on showing quantization. This is simply highlighting the section you’d like to fix, going into the Quantize dialog box (Opt+0), selecting a time unit, and processing.

However, you have to be much more careful with quantizing, since it is making a LOT of moves without auditioning first, so you will always want to go back and carefully listen to the moves.
