[Jay Coover]

…is Funkmasters > Clyde Stubblefield > Straight 4/4 > Song 02 89 BPM a straight beat?

Just sayin’

Yep agree ,silly ,it is technically swinging ,but can i add…….

Reggae would be a planet you would find this, same as some early rock’n’roll .
Some RnR tracks drift in and out on fills but the combination of half the band thinking real straight with certain people swingin on top .It’s mad !
As you know basically stripped back of all extras 1.3 & 2.4 naturally cant swing but some dudes are feeling the swing into all the 16 stuff on top.
I don’t think it is a mistake,he is feeling his straight on the 1.2.3.4 but he is swinging too.No trip
It works magically blending light swing with straight on the right material.

Not hearing anything but swinging 16ths here. There’s no hybridization of groove here to my ears.

I can look at the MIDI and see that no offbeat 16ths are landing anywhere but late.

It didn’ ruin my day or anything. I’d just be less likely to find grooves that are mis-categorized like this.

It’s tough enough anyway…for instance, say I want a hip-hop beat (this is close to a swung hip-hop even though it’s funk). I have to go through swung 8ths (not hip-hop) and swung 16ths not knowing which is which.

The next rev of SD/EZD needs a search and filter function.

Yes fair enough,Absolutely right

i know another old school soul/R’n’R dude with a famous song or two and he only books players for concerts who can swing but he means swing while they are playin straight.LoL
Uber cool. He showed me the difference and how things can fit,similar to my reggae friends not exact but close.

But you are right it should just be put in Swing and be done with it .
The filtered search is a great idea too.
