SEQUENCE QUANTIZATION

Quantization means changing the position of the recorded events so that the selected musical division can be followed exactly, thus elimina-
ting small performance imperfections.

EDITING SINGLE EVENTS (EDIT FUNCTION)
EDIT:
Enter the QUANTIZE menu by pressing the F3 button.
The track that is selected in that precise moment or part of it can be quantized.
The name of the track chosen for quantization and the locators indicating the FROM: position (where quantiza-
tion will start from) and TO: position (where quantization will end) will appear in the center of the page.
Use the Cursor<> buttons to select the locator and the Value -/+ buttons to change its position.
The locators are represented by the usual three numbers indicating bar, bar quarter and step.
In order to quantize a track, proceed as follows:
Use F1(NOTE), F2(CONTROL), F3(PROGRAM CHANGE), F4(ALL) to select the type of event you want to quantize.
If you press F4(ALL), all the events will be quantized and, therefore, the NOTE, CONTROL and PROGRAM CHAN-
GE events will automatically be deselected. Pressing F1 or F2 or F3 will automatically deselect ALL if the lat-
ter had been previously selected. By default, quantization is performed only on notes (most commonly used
condition).
Pressing F6 repeatedly to select the desired quantization value. The following values are available:
real no quantization
64T 1/96 of a bar (triplet)
64 1/64 of a bar
32T 1/48 of a bar (triplet)
32 1/32 of a bar
16T 1/24 of a bar (triplet)
16 1/16 of a bar
8T 1/12 of a bar (triplet)
8 1/8 of a bar
4T 1/6 of a bar
4 1/4 of a bar
2 1/2 bar
1 1 bar
Use F7(LAST RECORD), F8(PART), F9(ALL TRACK) to select the part of the track that will be quantized.
LAST RECORD: The last recording is quantized; the locators are automatically set on the positions of the
last recording.
PART:Any part of the track. This condition is automatically highlighted when a locator is changed.
ALL TRACK: The whole track. By pressing F9, the locators are positioned at the beginning and at the end of
the track respectively. "Beginning" is the position of the first event, "end" is the position of the last event.
Press F10(Execute) to perform the operation. If the result of this operation is unsatisfactory, you can use a
different quantization value and repeat the operation.
This function allows you to edit every event that has been recorded on the selected track. Access the first page
of the EDIT menu by pressing the F5 button. The menu is divided into two pages. For both pages, the midi events
with their temporal position are centered on the display. Let us have a detailed look at the fields relating to the
events that are centered on the display.
