Correcting note timing [Quantize]
You can correct the timing of notes. For example,
you can adjust recorded notes to precise eighth or
sixteenth notes.
• Changes are made by song.
See the procedure on page 69.

The three Quantize settings marked with asterisks (*) are
exceptionally convenient, since they allow you to quantize two
different note values at the same time. For example, when the
straight eighth notes and eighth notes triplet are contained in
the same part, if you quantize by the straight eighth notes, all
notes in the part are quantized to straight eighth notes—com-
pletely eliminating any triplet feel. However, if you use the
eighth note + eighth note triplet setting, both the straight and
triplet notes will be quantized correctly.

From this display, you can determine how strongly
the notes will be quantized. A setting of 100% pro-
duces exact timing. If a value less than 100% is
selected, notes will be moved toward the specified
quantization beats according to the specified per-
centage. Applying less than 100% quantization lets
you preserve some of the "human" feel in the
recording.

Specifying whether playback starts
immediately along with the first voic-
ing [QuickPlay]
This parameter enables you to specify whether a
song that starts from the middle of a bar, or a song
with a silence prior to the first note, should be
played from the first note or from the top of the bar
(rest or blank).
See the procedure on page 69.
