correcting timing

I recorded bass to go with some drums, but my timing with the bass is a little off in places.    How do I correct the timing so that it all lines up in sync?

    Audiosnap should do the trick.

    yeah audiosnap works pretty good on instruments for some audio quantizing.

    Or, the manual way of spitting the clips at spots and moving them a bit and adding small fades or cross fades for smooth transition from note to note while fixing the timing.

    Audiosnap can seem confusing at first with all it's options but is definitely worth getting to know.

    If all of your notes are fairly clean & monophonic, you can use V-Vocal

    Most of the notes are good, but some are off.  I tried Quantize, but it didn't work.    So I'll try Audiosnap.
     
    Thanks!

    If you do use the Split Clips function in AudioSnap you'll want to fade things afterward. There is a feature under the Clips menu in the Project View where you can add Fades to all selected clips and choose settings for fade-in, fade-out, cross-fade, etc.

    Also- if you recorded to a click it will be more straightforward with Audio Snap. If not, you will definitely need to add some rhythm tracks to your AudioSnap pool as references for adjustment.

    Peace,

    Cakewalk forum member "FastBikerBoy" has done a Youtube video on how to do this very thing with AudioSnap, the easy way.  Well worth the time to watch it.  See "extracting a tempo map the easy way" for details.

    To extract the timing from the kick track and apply it to the bass track:
    Select the Kick Track. Hit A to open the audiosnap palette. Extract groove, you will see dotted lines on the other tracks. Select the bass track and hit apply groove.

    Does anyone know what he says at around 1:09 to open the first Audiosnap box?  I can't tell what he says or how he opens it.
