The Grid

The Arrangement grid is comprised of the ticks in the timeline and the vertical lines extending
from those ticks through the background of the Arrangement. This grid uses the Timebase
setting as the basis for its display. The Timebase settings are Seconds, Samples, Bars, and
Frames, and they determine the behavior of Event and tool snapping. The Timebase can be
changed at any time, without directly affecting the arrangement.
Perhaps the most common Timebase setting is Bars, which will display time in a musical
format of bars and beats. With this Timebase setting, the grid will be determined by the
settings in the Quantize panel.
6.3.1 Quantize Panel
The Quantize panel can be opened from the toolbar by clicking on the Quantize Panel button,
or by selecting Quantize from the View/Additional Views menu. The Quantize panel can be
detached and freely placed on the screen. In this panel, you can edit all settings related to the
Quantize grid that are displayed in the Arrangement. From left to right in the panel, you will
see areas for Grid or Groove mode; note-value selection; note grouping and Swing amount;
Start, End, Velocity, and Range percentages; and preset management.
With Grid mode selected, you can choose a note value between a whole note and can select a
64th note, and the following musical note groupings: Straight, Triplet (3 notes in the space of
2), Quintole (a quintuplet with 5 notes in the space of 4), or Septole (a septuplet with 7 notes
