Quantizing

The Quantize command moves events to (or towards) an evenly-spaced
timing grid. The Quantize effect is similar to the Edit-Quantize
command. For more information, see ÒOther SettingsÓ on page 6-19.
The quantize effect parameters are as follows:
Parameter/Option... Meaning...
Start Times Quantize event start times.
Durations Quantize event durations.
Resolution The spacing of the grid used for quantization.
Tuplet Specify the resolution as a tuplet note, for example 5
notes in the time of 4.
Strength (%) The strength of the adjustments. 100% indicates
perfect quantization; otherwise, the command moves
the notes only part way towards the desired position.
Swing (%) The distortion of timing used to produce a swing feel.
A value of 50% indicates a straight rendition; negative
and positive values produce distortion of the timing
grid.For more information about swing, see "Swing"
on page 6-18.
Window (%) The sensitivity of quantization. A value of 100%
causes all notes to be quantized. Lower values cause
the effect not to quantize notes that are far from the
timing grid.
