Use the Type selector to set how timing corrections are applied.
•
Start: The start points of note events will be extended or shortened to align with the closest time
division marker in the grid. The start points will remain untouched.
•
End: The end points of note events will be extended or shortened to align with the closest time
division marker in the grid. The start points will remain untouched.
•
Length: The end points of note events will be extended or shortened so that each event's length is a
multiple of the time division, regardless of where it is in the grid. The start points will remain untouched.
•
Legato: The end points of note events will be extended or shortened to create a long, unbroken phrase
from the first note event's start point to the last note event's end point. Each note event will sustain until
another note event starts. If multiple note events start at the same time (and are not the last note
events), their lengths will become identical. Selecting Legato disables all other options in this window.
Without legato applied.
Use the Time Division selector to set the quantization value. Note events will "snap" to these time
divisions on the grid. The T indicates a triplet-based value.
Alternatively, double-tap the down arrow ( ) in the upper-left corner of the grid and select a time division.
You can also press and hold Note Repeat and use the 6 buttons at the bottom edge of the touchscreen.
Use the Swing field to set the amount of swing from 50% to 75%. Swing lets you "shuffle" your beats—
from subtle to extreme.
With legato applied.
