Chapter 28: Beat Detective

571

Each new set of triggers added to the collection
appears in a different color. If successive triggers
in the collection are located closely together (for
example, because of microphone leakage), Beat
Detective keeps only the earlier triggers (see
Figure 32 on page 571).

11

Repeat steps 7–10 for each additional track

you are analyzing.

The beat triggers stored in the Collection mode
are saved with sessions. Therefore, when a ses-
sion is opened later, the previous collection ma-
terial is still there (until it is cleared).

12

Once the beat triggers have been added to

the collection, you can use them to generate
Bar|Beat Markers or groove template, or separate
regions. However, this must be done from the
Collection Mode section (when the triggers are
displayed in multiple colors).

To separate regions across multiple tracks,
make sure to extend the selection to any ad-
ditional tracks before separating.
