[4] SWING button
When in Edit mode, press this button to edit the swing percentage for the selected Track
(each track has its own swing rate). Swing options conform to MPC “standard” (with the
addition of 78%), and apply the delay to every other step in a pattern (thus, causing it to
‘swing’). Swing editing is available when the SWING button glows red .
When editing swing values, the top row of buttons set the values from 50% (no swing) on the
leftmost button, to 78% swing on the rightmost button.
To set the Swing amount for the selected track, simply press the top row button corresponding
to the desired value. If you press and hold the value button, you apply the Swing setting to all
four tracks simultaneously.
In the following example, Swing is set to 54%.
NOTE : If a track employs both a Swing amount and a Delay amount (discussed below), those
delays will be summed. Gate lengths are maintained, however if a step is swung and/or
delayed so much that the requested gate length would overlap into the next step, then Steppy
automatically shortens the gate to insure every step triggers.
