Item Parameter

Correcting the Song's Timing (Quantize)

This function quantizes an already-recorded song.
MEMO
Quantize corrects only the timing at which you press a key (note-on) and the timing at which you release a key (note-off ); it does not correct the timing
of other performance data. This means that you may experience unintended results if performance data such as pitch bend or modulation is shifted
away from the notes to which it originally applied.

Track1–Track16 The specified track
001–END Specifies the range of measures that will be quantized.
Specifies how quantization will occur.
Grid quantization is applied during editing.
Use this when you want accurate timing,
GRID
such as for drums or bass.
Shuffle quantization is applied during editing. Use this when you want to give the rhythm a sense of shuffle
SHUFFLE
or swing.
Specifies the quantization timing as a note value.
GRID: 1/32 ( )–1/4 ( )
SHUFFLE: 1/16 ( )–1/8 ( )
If you're using grid quantize, choose the shortest note value that occurs in the region that you're quantizing.
* If you apply shuffle quantize to performance data that has significant discrepancies in timing, you might not obtain the result you
expect. In this case, first apply grid quantize to the original performance data so that it is aligned according to the musical score,
and then apply shuffle quantize to obtain the desired effect.
