to humanize or not to humanize
On my journey through the digital audio workstation Studio one 3 I have learn another new thing about what it can do. I have got to grips with the groove function in relation to the setting of the time, the quantizing bit. What I have learnt to do is to get a groove or beat or feel of a track and drag it into the groove grid and it gets used as a quantize setting then. I think this function is useful if you want to get a feel in a piece of music, lets say a house feel, well I guess you can drag a house track or just the drums and then quantize you track with the house track drum to get that groove going. It is also useful in getting rid of the that awful mechanical sound you get with a daw, the timing is not too human. There is another way of getting rid of that mechanical boring sound, by using the humanize function, which randomly changes thing around like a human, humans don't play the same thing over and over again in the say way all the time, they are not robots they put feeling into and this humanize function, will immitate the randomness and by doing so it should sound more interesting. The best way to achieve the human thing though I would think is to adjust the music yourself, but the humanizing and the groove function can help with creativity I think.
Well I guess my journey of understanding studio one 3 and therefore other daws will continue, there is a lot to these things and I don't think I have scratched the surface yet in relation to what they can do in relation to making music.
