Midi Groove Template in Reaper?

[memyselfandus]

Can this be done in Reaper?

This video shows you how to create a Midi groove template based and a rythmic audio percussion loop.



any other daws do this? I have never used it..

You have MIDI groove templates in SWS extensions. But nothing for audio.

You can get some of that functionality - you can extract a midi note sequence timed to the transients using Reagate (send midi on open/close). Then you can transpose those notes wherever you want. But not as elegant or efficient as the Samplitude method in the video.

I've done that with ReaEQ and ReaTune after each other. There should be tutorial on that - I don't remember where.

Basically you send midi from this to another track, that record output on that track , and you get a midi clip from audio.

I did that on a bass track, and it works fine. A little experimenting in finding the right parameters to get rid of unwanted notes.

But the important part of the midi groove in the example is that you can quantise to it. Reaper does not allow for that - although I haven't seen what the SWS extensions allow, maybe they do that and the grid moves as well.

Yes. Studio One does this eaiser than anything I've personally used (caveat to the mmv of all that as usual). Just drag any clip (audio or midi) to the groove window and the project quantize value is automatically set to that groove. Select another clip and hit Q or ALT-Q (50%), swing, whatever.

It's a 2 second process.

thanks Lawrence. That's one feature I've been meaning to try for so long in studio one. I keep forgetting about this.

[LawrenceF]

No problem. It also appears immediately for saving in the same toolbar. Just click the little "+" sign and give it a name to save the groove. The dialog free workflow for all that is really nice, imo.



Back on topic ... Reaper will have all that pretty soon I'm sure now that it has stretch markers. It's just a matter of time.

[memyselfandus]

nice.. can't wait to see what they come up with. Thanks for the other replies also guys. much appreciated.

Just me being stupid.

BTW, Lawrence is right, S1 is really cool with this.

what would be really cool is to be able to apply the overall groove to a complete MIDI drum track.

You can.

At some point you should maybe end the research and just try using some of them.
