The Arrange Grid defines regularly spaced-out timings notably used in following situations:
â–ª Adjusting the Pattern length (see below).
â–ª Adjusting the Section lengths.
Adjusting the Arrange Grid
To adjust the Arrange Grid:
â–º To adjust the Arrange Grid resolution, click the value beneath the Groups in the Arrange
view and select the desired setting from the menu (see above for the available settings).
→ The divisions of the Arrange Grid now have the size you have just selected.
The following Arrange Grid resolutions are available:
▪ 1 Bar, 1/2 note, …, 1/16th note: Each of these settings lets you adjust the Pattern Length by
the specified increment.
â–ª Off: The Arrange Grid is disabled. Notably, you can freely set the Pattern Length to any val-
ue or set the playback position to any location.
â–ª Quick (default): With this setting, the available lengths for your Pattern are as follows: 1
bar, 2 bars, 4 bars, 8 bars, 12 bars, 16 bars, etc. (+ 4 bars each time starting from 4
bars). This handy mode allows you to quickly select from the most common Pattern
Lengths. For other uses of the Arrange Grid (adjusting the playback position and the Loop
Range), one-bar divisions are used instead.
