The values of the Quantize parameter in the Region inspector are grouped in the following
categories:
• No quantization: The off setting plays the notes at the finest possible timing
resolution:1/3840 note, which is unquantized playback, for practical purposes.
• Normal quantization: The 1/1-Note, 1/2-Note, 1/4-Note, 1/8-Note, 1/16-Note, 1/32-Note,
and 1/64-Note settings quantize the MIDI region to the equivalent note value.
• Triplet quantization: The Triplet settings quantize the MIDI region to triplet note values.
The equivalent values are shown in parenthesis.
• Swing quantization: The 1/16 Swing A-F settings delay the position of every second
point in the quantization grid by a fixed percentage. You can also manually alter the
swing factor of any Quantize value.
• Odd quantization: The 5-Tuplet/4 is quarter quintuplets (1bar=5beats), 5-Tuplet/8
is eighth quintuplets (1bar=10beats), 7- Tuplet is septuplets (1bar=7beats), and
9-Tuplet setting denotes novetuplets (1bar=9 beats).
• Mixed quantization: These combine ‘straight’ and tuplet values of 1/16 and 1/18. Mixed
quantization always applies to both note values, and requires greater playing precision
when recording.
The Swing settings delay the position of every second point in the quantization grid by a
fixed percentage, as follows:
Quantize setting Swing percentage
Swing F 71%
Swing E 66%
Swing D 62%
Swing C 58%
Swing B 54%
Swing A 50%
Logic Pro advanced quantization parameters
When Show Advanced Tools is selected in the Advanced preferences pane, you can
quantize regions with greater precision using the advanced quantization parameters in the
Region inspector. Using the advanced parameters, you can apply a swing or other quantize
feel to MIDI regions. Not all advanced quantization parameters are available for audio
regions.
