3. To apply only a small amount of quantization to keep the groove you created after record-
ing your pattern, right-click the mouse and select Quantize 50% from the context menu.
4. To undo/redo Quantize use hotkeys: Ctrl+Z/Ctrl+Y (Cmd+Z/Cmd+Y on macOS).
Using Quantization on the Controller
You can quantize your notes at any time, no matter how you recorded them. They will be quan-
tized according to the step size (i.e. Step Grid resolution) selected. If you turn the Step Grid
off,  no  quantization  will  be  applied.  See  section  ↑10.1.7,  Adjusting  the  Step  Grid  and  the
Nudge Grid for more information on the Step Grid and the step size.
You can  also  choose to have notes  automatically  quantized as you record  them  on  the
pads! See section ↑10.2.5, Quantizing while Recording for more information.
To apply full or half quantization:
1. Select the events you wish to quantize. If nothing is selected, the whole Pattern content
will be quantized. See ↑10.4.3, Selecting Events/Notes to know how to select events.
2. To apply full quantization to the selected events, press SHIFT + pad 5 (QUANTIZE).
3. To apply only a bit of quantization to keep the groove you created by playing your notes
live, press SHIFT + pad 6 (QUANTIZE 50%).
You can repeatedly  apply  QUANTIZE  50%  until  you  are  happy;  you  could  for example
apply  it  until  the  notes  are  close  enough  to  the  Step  Grid  to  sound  tight,  but  loose
enough to maintain their basic “feel.” If it is too quantized for you, just press SHIFT +
pad 1 to undo the last change.
10.4.8 Quantization While Playing
 
Input Quantization mode allows you to quantize events also as you play them on the pads.
The Input Quantization settings previously available have been renamed to include the new In-
put Quantization mode — now Input Quantization can be set to following modes in the Prefer-
ences:
▪ None: Input Quantization is disabled. Events you play or record on the pads are not quan-
tized.
