QUANTIZE
The Quantize function allows you to align the timing of all the notes in a channel. For example, if you
record the musical phrase shown below, you may not play it with absolute precision, and your
3
performance may have been slightly ahead of or behind the precise timing. Quantize is a convenient way
of correcting for this.

CHANNEL Determines which MIDI channel in the Song data is to be quantized.
SIZE Selects the quantize size (resolution). For optimum results, you should set
the Quantize size to the shortest note value in the channel. For example, if
eighth notes are the shortest in the channel, you should use eighth note as
the Quantize size.
Quarter-note length
Settings:
1/4 note
1/4 note
triplet
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-
note triplets are contained in the same channel, if you quantize by the
straight eighth notes, all notes in the channel are quantized to straight
eighth notes—completely 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.
