Music Theory - Rhythm Tutorial 4 Swing

I have been trying to get a bit of groove happening and about 1 minute into the tutorial he starts moving a percentage value up but when I go to the spot he is at to change this it is where the name of the clip is :confused: I am running the most updated version of Live 8 Suite, don’t know whats up although i’m thinking its gonna be something very simple :stuck_out_tongue:

You will need to pick a groove from the groove browser… Then drag it your clip.

Hi Scrubbly,



Phil is correct. I used the swing-16 99 for the swing example, so drag it to your clip. Now, for the purposes of the tutorial, I have several clips lined up in the session view ready to go with those percentages factored into each individual clip. I did this so I could just cycle through them quickly and show everyone how the notes move. The clip label showing the percentage is just that, a label. It doesn’t really have anything to do with the effect of the groove pool at all.



Also, the notes in your clip will not show any sign of movement until you actually ā€œcommitā€ to the groove. This is most likely the reason why you aren’t seeing any action in the clip itself. We can always ā€œhearā€ the groove happening when we change the percentage, but we only ā€œseeā€ it when we hit the commit button.



Hope this helps!

Ahhh thanks guys! :smiley: I was confused because I wasn’t seeing any of the notes move as I was changing the percentage but you were just cycling through different clips, got it now :stuck_out_tongue:

Great! Glad you figured it out. Haha. I guess I should have explained that in the video.
