Quantize

[FUNCTION MENU] button [User Style Composer] field
[Quantize]
The Quantize function can be used after recording a
part if you don't feel comfortable with the timing of
what you played. If only certain notes in a given time
range need to be quantized, you should narrow down
the edit range using the From/To parameters.
Track, Mode, Type, Division— See page 178 for
details.
From, To, Bar, Beat, CPT— See page 178 for details.
Value— This parameter sets the resolution of the
Quantize function. The available values are: 1/8, 1/8t,
1/16, 1/16t, 1/32, 1/32t, 1/64t. See also page 142 for an
example.
Execute— Press this field to confirm your settings and
edit the data.
Note: Be sure to always select the value that equals the
shortest note you recorded. Otherwise, your part no longer
sounds the way you played it.

Gate T

[FUNCTION MENU] button [User Style Composer] field
[Gate T]
The Gate Time function allows you to modify the
duration of the notes in the selected time (From/To)
range. See page 151 for details.
Track, Mode, Type, Division— See page 178 for
details.
From, To, Bar, Beat, CPT— See page 178 for details.
Value (–1920~+1920)— This parameter sets the
amount by which the duration (or gate time) of the
selected notes is to be changed. The shortest possible
Gate Time value is "1". Allowing the value "0" would
180
effectively erase the notes, which can only be achieved
with Erase (see page 178). You cannot use Gate Time
[Edit] field
to erase notes.
Execute— Press this field to confirm your settings and
edit the data.

Shift

[FUNCTION MENU] button
[Shift]
Shift allows you to shift the the notes within the
selected From/To range. See page 151 for details.
Note: Before selecting a Shift value, you should have a look
at one track in the Microscope mode (see page 181) to deter-
mine which negative value to use. If the first note of a track
starts on 1-1-6, for example, set Shift to "–6". Be sure to
apply the same Shift to all tracks to maintain the timing of
the original!
Track, Mode, Type, Division— See page 178 for
details.
From, To, Bar, Beat, CPT— See page 178 for details.
Value (–1920~+1920)— This parameter sets the
amount by which the notes are shifted. The Value
refers to CPT units (one CPT= 1/120 ).
[Edit] field
Note: Notes on the first beat of the first bar cannot be shifted
further to the left (that would mean shifting them to the "0"
measure, which doesn't exist).
Execute— Press this field to confirm your settings and
edit the data.
