Swing settings

1, 2, 3, 4
By adjusting the Swing settings you can offset the note timing of
the steps. For example, you can change a straight 16-beat by add-
ing a slight "bounce" or shuffle. The Swing value can be adjusted
from 50 to 75 (%), and will affect the note timing of even-num-
bered steps. A setting of 50 will produce a perfect 16-beat, and a
setting of 66 will produce a shuffle.
1. If a pattern is playing back, press the Stop/Cancel key to stop
playback.

Swing settings.
