Beat Mapping like a novice
Feb 4th, 2010, 04:56
I'm just learning about beat mapping (Steve H's master class) and I'm having trouble making the leap. The composition I'm hoping to beat map consists of some guitar tracks and an audio (blue) drum track.
I tried to set up a beat map and thought I'd use the wave form as my guide but when I tried to set the beat, i.e. move it I couldn't. In my tutorial he is working with a solo midi track and I'm working with all audio tracks. Do I have to convert my drum loop into an apple loop to make it subject to the beat mapping function or is there some other thing I haven't figured out. I hope this is clear. (I'm not familiar with a lot of the nomenclature)
Thanks,
