How to Correct Vocal Timing Issues Using Flex Time 

Tutorial begins at 4:38

Really nice job! I also like the way you explained that tightening up the vocal is specific to certain genres, but can be used as desired in others. A good example of when that would not be desirable is in a song like Rehab by Amy Winehouse. In the chorus where she sings, "I won't go, go, go" the the "goes" are well behind the beat, which creates a sense of pulling that is perfect for the message.

Damn! Its rare to come across a tutorial where the instructor is fast, has great energy and the music is also bomb. Got a new subscriber off top from me!

That reverb is still tailing now...

i like how much fun you're having. i do the same thing when i feel really good about a track i'm working on :)

It took me forever to fix this problem. To clarify, I had a huge issue with flex pitch. When I would use it, the timing would shift and there would be tempo fluctuations. What I ended up doing was adding flex time on to the tracks after I would add flex pitch to a track. A lot of time mine defaults to the "slicing" flex time setting. I usually will have to add it to another setting like the "monophonic" settings for synth basses and "rhythmic" for guitars. I hope this works for you because I can get mine to work overtime. Good luck!

I almost bought Melodyne just for this feature... I need to know Logic better!! Thanks for this!

thank u bro. not enough ppl know logic this deep.

Wonder when the song is coming out. Sounds Awesome!

Skip to 4:45 Thanks for the tutorial and nice tune

Which flex algorithm did you use for the vocals?

wondering about your master outs pegging out in the red. Can you comment on that? cheers

your video was very helpful. Any chance we could get a one o one how to use logic. Ill pay

Hi! I get clicks and pops when using flex time. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. When I try do flex pitch after applying flex time, it gets soo distorted, even after bouncing in place. What am I doing wrong?

Where can I find this song

Great Tutorial 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Is It Apllicable In GarageBand? Thank You

What about Logic version 10.4? It seems to totally screw up the audio timing if you apply it to a whole track..

I like this video. You're informative, real and straight forward. Great stuff. ✊🏼💥

You just opened me up to a whole new world man. Thanks!

You need to fix your audio of ypour webcam. Please put a deesser on it

Thanks! super helpful

At 7:34 when he presses play again the view jumps back aswell, i find this sooo anyoing because it often happends while the beginning of the region is visible on screen as well.. Does anyone know a fix for this?

thanks man! so helpful!

Great video! Do you get the sense that the tone of the vocal shifts when applying Flex Time (Polyphonic)? For some reason, I hear the vocal in my session get thinner within the Flex Time processed portion of the region. It’s as if the Flex Time process adds a very subtle 3-5k boost and cuts the low end. I hear this before any EQ or dynamic processing is placed on the track.

thanks!

1. At 4.06 you drag down to zoom a track vertically - I cant do that.. (I have version 10.4.1, if that's related..) When I take my pointer there I dont get the vertical zoom icon you do (i only get it at the sides of the track area to zoom horizontally..). Is there some setting to enable this downward track drag? 2. How do i set the playhead to RETURN to its starting point whenever I press space again to stop it from playing (after I've pressed play to start playing, of course)? I want to be able to press space to stop the playhead, and it to come back to the part of the track where it left from. Is this possible?? It works like that in cubase but can't figure it out here.. 3. Is there a way to set markers (automatically to begin with, and then manually for any corrections thereafter) at all the downbeats throughout the track so that Logic "warps" the track and then the entire track and places every beat where it should be on the grid; so that whenever i change the arrangement's BMP, the track will automatically change its tempo and "sit" perfectly on the new tempo grid?

Great track and advice.

Wonder if there’s a way to duplicate the track and harmonize with the transpositions

Nice track and awesome tut.Keep it up.

Great video... but what's the trick to avoiding Logic's "crackle" artifact that often accompanies flex pitch/time? Did this latest version resolve it or do we still have to eventually switch over to Melodyne after frustration?

Yes, this is gonna save me so much time. Thanks handsome.

Ur a life saver much love to you friend :) hitting subscribe button now

good

Bro what's the song called?

If you don't have time to listen to all this chatty guy's speech go at 5:44

Thanks!!

Hi Ben. Is there anywhere I can access this project file or the stems? Great tune!

Very nice you made it look too easy but I know it can be challenging. Thanks!

8:17 😂😂thanks for the video!!

its like late 90ies dance music, mid 2000's ...she doing teh scratchy white girl voice though everybody doing now... like they sad or sumthin''

There's gotta be a faster way to do this....

You just got a like from me my friend

the reverb makes this unlistenable. why not just solo the vocal to a click? would make this much easier to follow.
