Quantize
UsetheQuantizefunctiontoadjustthetimingofNoteevents.KeepinmindthatonlyNote
eventsarequantized; othertypesofevents,suchascontrollers,arenotquantized.
Quant:Off/1to100%
TheQuantizeparameterdetermineshowmuchtheselectedNoteeventsaremovedtowards
gridlocations.Ifset
toOff,noaligningofpreviouslyrecordednotestogridlocationswilloccur.
Ifsetto100%,everyrecordedNoteeventwillbealignedtotheclosestgridlocation,definedby
theGridsetting.Noteswillbemovedtoa positionhalfwaybetweenthegridlocationandthe

Grid:1/1to1/480
ThissettingdeterminesthesizeoftheQuantizegrid,expressedasafractionofaBarwitha4/4

TheSwingpercentageisappliedtothequantizegrid.0%swingisstraighttime,100%produces
aswingfeel(tripletfeel).ApositiveSwingvaluedetermineshow closeevery
