Melodyne • The Quantize Time macro for tighter performances


In this video, Rich demonstrates how to tighten up an entire multi-track recording with the ‘Quantize Time’ macro in Melodyne. He does so by carefully quantizing the performance of each band member to make them all ‘sit in the pocket’. Whether it’s drums, bass, guitars, synths, lead or harmony vocals – Melodyne can improve the groove and timing of them all!
