This is top work, nice effort and we need more work like this out there for all rookies that don't understand the power of a tool like Beat Detective!

Great job Kenny.

You really know how to turn them into robots in a jiffy.

KIDDING!!! KIDDING!!!

Great job Kenny.

You have a really calm and focused teaching style(You sound like the kids are asleep in the other room and you're trying to keep your voice down). Very informative and easy to watch.

Best regards,

SM.

Rufuss Sewell · 31st January 2007, 07:32 AM

Thank you, that was awesome!

Since you asked about suggestions how about:

Making the click track conform to a freestyle live drum recording.

brilliant...i never did use bd much but now i will.

Fidelis · 31st January 2007, 05:40 PM

Simple, well done, good work!

drew · 31st January 2007, 06:47 PM

Kenny,
Cool video, thanks for taking the time. FYI, you'll get a lot less false triggers if you analyze with the Emphasis set to Low. You had it set to High while collecting triggers on low freq instruments. Kick and Toms especially but even a Snare when set to low will ignore highend bleed and result in less false triggers.

I need to try that. Thx.

It's odd that the Kick track had no problems though.

!

well, the bass drum usually has less leackage to 'confuse' things, to begin with.

**toolskid** · 2nd February 2007, 09:36 AM

maybe mentioning trigger padding and pre splice fades would be good too!!

what screen capture utility are you using?

looks great!

SoundEng1 · 2nd February 2007, 10:24 AM

1- auto tune {need more tricks and tips on using alternate scales}
