The Timing Correct window contains various settings to help quantize the note events in your sequence.
To open the Timing Correct settings, tap the TC/clock icon at the top of the touchscreen.
To apply the settings you selected, tap Do It.
To cancel and return to the previous screen, tap Close.
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.
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, press and hold Note Repeat and use the six buttons at the bottom 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.
Use the Shift Timing field to shift all note events by clock ticks.
Use the Window field to set how many notes around a quantize value will be quantized. Any notes outside this range
will not be quantized; notes inside will.
Use the Strength field to set how strictly notes will be quantized (i.e., shifted toward the quantize value). Lower
values move notes a little bit towards the closest quantize value, resulting in a less mechanical feel than a strict
quantization (a higher value).
Without legato applied. With legato applied.
