This isn’t always the easiest transition to make unless you own a track that has that transition already in it, because the snares typically hit at different times. The dark diagonal line divides sounds from the current bar (above the line) and sounds from previous bars up to 8 beats back (below the line).įor example, say you are in the middle of a Breaks set and want to change it up by mixing into a Dubstep track.
You’ll notice the negatively numbered horizontal dark lines, which indicate the amount of time in beats you are resetting the sound to. NOTE: In the current state (which is preferred for this tutorial), the grid portion of the GUI shows 1 bar divided into 4 beats (i.e., the alternating shaded columns).
You can alter the genre of a track/loop by making a preset of “Time Slots” that alter the pattern of a bar in line with typical kick and snare patterns in the respective genres. For instance, if you are playing in the 135-145 range you can change between, Dubstep, Breaks and House rhythms.Įach Gross Beat preset features 36 Time Slots and 36 Volume Slots that allow manipulation of up to a bar length. Using Gross Beat in live performances can be very useful in changing the genre/rhythm of the playing track in a live set. Much has been made about the utility of Gross Beat as a Glitch plug-in for producing, but its uses are much more expansive than applying Glitch effects in a production environment.
