Quantizing is lining up all the hits against a grid. It's called keeping up with the jones'. With budgets and timeframes getting smaller, waiting for a week to get a perfect take isn't an option.Nick The Man said:

How would one go about quantizing drums?
The only thing I have been doing with my drum tracks is lining them up for phase.

there are plugins out there that help you do it (manually can take a long time)
Pro Tools uses Beat Detective...which is it's own version of quantization.

I group all the drum tracks together, then cut (across all the drum tracks) at every hit. Then line them up to the grid. There is a function in Nuendo/Cubase that lines it up for you. Then you have to pull the gaps and crossfade.

That really sucks. Good thing most of the bands I record are too poor to pay for that much editting; they get to hear their imperfections in all their glory!
Actually, I do move a hit or two...or ten...if the take was pretty good except for those few off hits. But quantizing the entire take? F no!!! rather shove spoons into my brane.

Indeed it is.
Note that the fundamental is not usually the loudest component with most musical instruments. With electric guitars and basses, with the strings plucked in the usual place above the pickups, the second harmonic dominates. On my Fender Precision bass the second harmonic is about 10 to 12 dB louder than the fundamental. An electric guitar generally has an even larger disparity, and a bright piano varies even more.

Wow, neat tid bit of information.

That is also another reason not to scoop the mids on your guitar amp.VSpaceBoy said:
