Swing beat

... Beating my head against the wall ...

In my head, I can do a swing beat. I can imagine it, feel it. But I'm having a hard time translating it into lmms. Trying to write some electro swing.

Any suggestions?

swing or whilted notes are easy in lmms
Insert normal notes of the length you want
Raise magnification 4 or 800
Set Q to 64
Mark and move the notes one or two 1/64 left (pre) or right (post) whilt
So I'd have to do that under pianoroll, not the beat editor?
Beat Editor: no, there is no 'swing automation' to randomly move certain beats back and forth by 1/64. So, if you tweak a note in the beat editor, it will always be at that tweaked location, which isn't very swingy. Of course, you could duplicate the Master beat a couple of times and then slightly tweak notes by 1/64, and then alternate between the two tracks in the song editor.

Yes, but you can still do this in B&B in order to create a 'sizable' block. Just right-click a BB-block, and open in piano-roll.
Obs that selecting a green 'no-length-note' wont change its color, but you can do anything with them anyways.
