Is that how you're working or are you adjusting each instrument (kik, snare, overheads) separately??? If so that must take forever.
Yeah, I guess I should have mentioned that I'm aware of and use most of the generally accepted rules and superstitions of Elastic Audio (grouped tracks, different algorithms for different tracks, ticks vs samples, etc).

But that's my point -- there shouldn't be superstitions about a tool like this. It's just lines of code, written by real people, to achieve a specific task. And yet, we're all left having to develop theories as to how to use it. It just doesn't make sense to me that the documentation can't explain it clearly and dispell the myths. It just leads to poor understanding, improper use, and the assumption that it "doesn't work."
