Subject:nudging in acid? Posted by: acegrube Date:2/18/2001 1:37:39 AM I use lots of one shots to create drum parts, rather than just using loops. I like to take individual hits and randomly nudge each event a few milliseconds off the grid to get more of a human feel. Vegas has a properties window where start time for events can be edited. I can't find an easy way to do this in Acid. The only way that I can see to do it is by turning off snapping and moving events with the mouse, very cumbersome. Does anyone know an easier way to do this in ACID? If any SF folks are listening a randomize feature that could be applied to tracks, or selections, that had some basic paramaters for randomizing event starts and volume, and maybe the start offset would be awesome. Thanks Erich Gruber
