    Default Beat Gridding "A New Error" by Moderat.

    Well,
    I've been messing around with beat grids for quite some time now (I've watched Ean's Videos as well) and I just cannot seem to beatgrid this track properly...
    Would anyone who knows this track be willing to help me out?
    Thanks!

    Set the tempo to 111 and put move autogrid marker onto a snare - thats all thats needed

    I find that the best way to deal with difficult songs is to find a snare somewhere near the beginning after the regular beat starts. Put the beat marker on that then set a cue at the next snare reduce or increase the bpm to get it close then move further into the song to fine tune the bpm as per the tutorial.

    Once the grid is good I usually put "snap" back on and drop a new beat marker at the beginning of the grid and delete the one that does not have anything to do with the song structure. (personal preference)....


    It seems that only a few tunes require this extra effort. So far for me traktor has gotten the bpm correct or x2 or /2 the most common error for me is that it is 1/8 note off.

    Thanks a lot Bento!

    And @ CJS: Yeah it's only certain tunes that gives me problems. The snare near the beginning works great

    Hey, I'd grid for money if I had the time. Hell, if there's a big enough market I'd quit my job.
    It's the FAQ. Read it.
