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
original Note-event location if Quant is set to 50%.
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
meter. Set Grid to 1/1 for whole note grid, 1/16 for sixteenth notes. All of the standard note
durations and all fractional Bar divisions in between are available as the size of the Input
Quantize grid.
Swing: -100 to 125%
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 other grid location
is moved to a point 1/3 of the way towards the next grid point. Negative Swing moves every
other grid location closer to a point 1/3 of the way towards the previous grid point.
Release: Yes/No
Set the Release parameter to Yes if you would like each quantized Note event’s Note Off
message to be aligned to the grid location nearest to the time the key was originally released.
