I want to swing every other 1/8 note in my drum tracks. As I 
unserstand it, swing adjust every other note  from the quantize 
setting... Correct. So to do this I would need to set my quantize to 
1/8th notes. Correct? Well the problem comes in that I have ghost 
hits and what nots on 1/16 notes. Is there any way I can swing every 
other 1/8th without moving the 1/16s onto 1/8ths?
  Also when going for a more jazzy feel would you only swing the 
drums or swing the instruments as well. I would imagine most 
musicians just play with the drummer, whether his beats are on or 
off.

Well, if all else fails you can put the ghost notes on a separate 
track and just not apply swing to that track. It may or may not 
sound good that way.

The only way I can think of to do this, would be to copy the ghost notes 
to a seperate track, apply the swing to the first track, then use the Copy 
Tracks To Clipboard to join the two on a new track.

Simple enough. I should've thought it through that far.  Thanks..

Hi,

I think it´s most easy to get a own key for the ghost notes, so you can
quantize it how you want.

Are you saying to put them on their own track, or are you refering 
to something else?
