Drums, drum, drums, drums. Drums, drum, drums, dru……….oh hello. When you work with triplets over standard 16th paterns, are you (technically) s'possed to swing the 2nd triplet. And by how much? Should my swang triplet be swang as much as the 2 & 4 16th. Say I have the 2nd and 4th 16th on a swing of 41, do I have the 2nd triplet on 41 aswell or one third of that?

Phanx.

too broad a question mate.... you might be talking about JD beats for example - now.... tell me the swing in that?.. lol - actualy it's a 3 time push .... depends on genre etc

btw - if you use Logic, you can create groove templates from audio loops - I guess SX & SONAR might do that too (as well as Orion & Fruity), but not being a regular user of those ones I dunno

anyways, that feature is great because it allows you to use material from CD of your fav artists to create templates

Hi K

The genre is house music. So, I want to use the odd triplet patterns over the standard house patterns. I usually use swing B or C depending on the tune. Usually B cos I find that C sounds a bit too "tech house". As you know B is 21 ticks and C is 41 ticks. Does that provide a bit of clarity K?

Also, d'you think that the audio loop to groove template thing works well? I don't. Sad I know but I usually cut every single 16th of my favourite tracks in recycle then examine. I find that audio loop template option doesn't provide me with an accurate groove template compared to when I use rrex files cos the audio loop template thing is always out by at least 5 ticks.

Ta.

no, it's great in Logic, you have to mess with the velocity - the other thing you can do is - mae a copy of the loop after getting the hitpoints for the kick & snare, and then take the copy loop and cut all the bottom end out with an eq, then use that to get the top-end quantise for the hats, shakers etc.

still not sure how you mean adding 'triplet' patterns - got any audio example of the sort of thing you mean? - (you can attach an mp3 loop to a forum post)

Sorry lads, Probably taking about this all wrong. You know, 8 note triplets in Logic (if that is what their called). I'm basically chattin about the triplet pattern that fits 3 notes into one quarter note. Positioning is 1, 81, 161 respectively. Which one of these 3 triplet notes am I s'possed to swing. Maybe the second one with a lower velocity aswell?

If I am using 16B swing in logic for all my 2nd and 4th 16th's, how do I translate this swing into a triplet hat pattern rollin over the top of my 16B 4x4 house beats?

Is that about as clear as mud then boys?

8th note triplets and 16b are different feels , the triplet one's more bouncy with the 2nd and third hits nowhere near any of the 16b 16ths

Thanks Beds. I know what you are saying with regards to a triplet pattern and a 16th pattern having a different feel. My question is IF I am using them both in the same track, then what should I swing the 2nd triplet by, if anything? Cheers.
