At the heart of Beat Detective is its transient, or literal, beat detection.…By searching the waveform for transients, or peaks in amplitude, we can identify…the rhythmic points of interest within a region.…This is especially true for percussive material like drums, which is Beat…Detective's specialty.…So, the three modes: Bar|Beat Marker Generation, Groove Template Extraction, and…Region Separation, all share the same Detection and Analysis section.…Now, you can do your analysis and switch between any of these modes.…
So, after we've made a selection, again, we want to make sure that our selection…is accurate, right down to the Bar | Beat, and that we're actually working with…this relative time here, not that this just matches here, but when I listen to…my selection, it actually matches, starting at measure 2, ending at measure 6.…And now I can start the analysis here.…So, after making the selection, the Analyze button comes online, and I can click that.…If I need to reanalyze, I can make a new selection and click Analyze again.…
