Bassfaceus 8 Posted August 16, 2021 Me again.. i have a song im working on that has a drumloop that i like but has a weak kik drum so i have set up another track and set up another kik that works well together with the loop kik so know i have the loop with weak kik (still very audible) in conjunction with this other kik now it sounds punchy..but i did have to line up the new kik coz the loop kiks werent always on the beat some a few ticks ahead/behind....OK painstakingly done all that Now i discover that theres the remnant of a Hi Hat on the subsidiary kik track which is upsetting the groove. i have also discovered that i can shorten this clip and remove the remnant but coz the kiks are not uniform in placement will take me ages to modify each one by hand.. OK so how do i tell cakewalk to make every clip on my kik track to be a specified length (thus removing the remnant HiHat) Thanks for reading... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bassfaceus 8 Posted August 16, 2021 ive tried searching with every wording i can think of if someone can just point to the page in the Cakewalk manual thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bassfaceus 8 Posted August 16, 2021 ive had one "confused" reaction... simply put..i have 70 identical kik drum clips on a track they are lets say 500milliseconds in length. i want to shorten all of them to 400 ms how do i do that quickly and easily Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fossile 515 Posted August 16, 2021 if the clips are identical, why not fix one then copy? or groove clip it? can you use the silence function to set the threshold on the weak kick and have it removed? or eq it out? or selecting the clips, then ctrl key and drag edge to shorten?

Bassfaceus 8 Posted August 16, 2021 thanks for the reply.. they are identical in length (because they are the same sample) but not identical in position ie they are not quantized and they have been positioned in the track by hand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scook 4,694 Posted August 16, 2021 select the clips and change the length in the clip properties inspector. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
