I'm just starting to beat grid my tracks and I've watched Ian's tutorial on YouTube at least ten times so far. When I follow his tutorial I place the the first marker on the first kick hit. For some reason I just don't like putting it on a snare hit. I can't really explain why..
During my whole organizing workflow-- tagging, renaming the files, artwork if I can find it, and running it through mixed in key for the camelot key and BPM tags. BPM tags are stores in all my tracks.
So when I load a track and place the a cue point at the first kick then change it to grid, I follow Ian's instructions by skimming through the track and usually the grids line up perfectly through the whole track. I rarely have to make any adjustments. When gridding I make sure the white line is just on the beat. I adjust the grid until all white lines JUST hit the grid, no extra.
But when I play two tracks together, the kicks sound SLIGHTLY out of sync on just about every track I've gridded.
Any suggestions on fixing this?
