Options
Pre-Process Using Quantize Enable to hard
quantize the selected MIDI notes according to
the Quantize command’s settings before apply-
ing Groove Quantize.
The Pre-Process Using Quantize option is only
available when the Timing option is enabled.
Timing Enable to apply Groove Quantize to the
selected MIDI notes. Use the slider to change the
amount of quantization applied to the selec-
tion. If the slider is set to 0%, there is no change
in timing. A setting of 100% moves notes to the
underlying template locations. If the slider is set
to 200%, notes move to a tick location that is
twice the difference between the original note
location and the position of the referenced tem-
plate event.
For example, if a note was played at Bar 1|1|060
(a 16th note), and the corresponding template
event is at 1|1|073, a slider value of 100% results
in the note being shifted to 1|1|073 (a slider
value of 200% shifts the note to 1|1|086).
The default value for the Timing slider is 100%.
Duration Enable to influence the durations of
the selected MIDI notes. At a setting of 100%,
durations are changed to match the current
groove template. Set to 200%, durations in-
crease and decrease based on the ratio of the
original duration of the selected notes and the
durations in the template.
The default value for the Duration slider is
100%.
Velocity Enable to influence the velocities of the
selected MIDI notes. If the slider is set to 0%
there is no change to the selected velocities, a
setting of 100% sets all velocities to match the
current groove template. A velocity setting of
200% typically results in over-exaggerated ve-
locities—loud notes increasing and soft notes
decreasing in volume.
For example, if two adjacent notes have equal
velocities of 80, and the two corresponding tem-
plate velocities are 70 and 90, setting the slider
to 200% changes both to velocities of 60 and
100.
The default value for the Velocity slider is 100%.

Beat Detective does not currently extract du-

ing Beat Detective contain a fixed duration
value that is 50% of the selected template
resolution (see “Defining a Beat Detective
