Sometimes, sounds with long attack times sound 'late' within our tracks. This is particularly true when we blend those sounds with more percussive sounds. In this video, Jono explores how you can control any timing mismatches by working with MIDI Delay. This lets you shift notes later still or, using negative values, pull them forwards in time. Anyone working with orchestral samples, in particular, will find this helpful.
