Correct the Timing of Your Playing
as You Record (Recording
Quantize)
The Quantize function automatically corrects inaccuracies in the
timing of your keyboard or pad performance, aligning the notes to
accurate timing intervals. During realtime recording, you can
quantize while you record.
Set the following recording parameters in addition to the basic
3
settings described in step of p. 124.

Explanation
OFF: Quantize will not be
applied while recording.
GRID: Grid Quantize will be
applied while recording. Use
this when you want the tim-
ing to be accurate, such as
when recording drums or
bass.
SHUFFLE: Shuffle Quantize
will be applied while record-
ing. Use this when you want
to give the rhythm a "shuf-
fle" or "swing" character.
Quantization time interval
,
Select the shortest note
,
value that will occur in the
,
range to which Grid
Quantize will be applied.
Degree to which notes will
be adjusted toward the tim-
ing intervals specified by
Grid Resolution
With a setting of "100%,"
the notes will be corrected
precisely to the timing of
the Grid Resolution pa-
rameter. With a setting of
"0%," the timing will not
be adjusted at all.
Quantization time interval
Degree to which the back-
beat will be separated from
the downbeat specified by
Shuffle Resolution
With a setting of "50%,"
the backbeat will be exact-
ly between adjacent
downbeats. With a setting
of "0%," the backbeat will
be moved to the same tim-
ing as the preceding
downbeat. With a setting
of "100%," the backbeat
will be moved to the same
timing as the following
downbeat.
