Quantize Notes
In Reason, you use the Quantize function in the following way:
1. Select the notes you want to quantize.
Only notes will be affected, so you can select Groups or complete Tracks
if you like.
2. Pull down the Quantize pop-up menu on the sequencer toolbar and
select a Quantize value.
This determines to which note values the notes will be moved when you
quantize. For example, if you select sixteenth notes, all notes will be
moved to (or closer to) the closest sixteenth note position.
3. Select a value from the Quantize Strength pop-up menu.
This is a percentage, governing how much each note should be moved. If
you select 100%, notes will be moved all the way to the closest Quantize
value positions; if you select 50%, notes will be moved half-way, etc.
4. Click the Quantize button or select “Quantize Notes” from the Edit
menu.
The selected notes are quantized.
Change Events...
The Change Events dialog contains some special editing functions. Proceed
as follows:
1. Select the events to which you want to apply the editing functions.
The Change Events functions are mainly used with notes, but the Scale
Tempo function will also affect controllers and pattern changes (see be-
low).
2. Select Change Events from the Edit menu or the context menu for
the selected events.
The Change Events dialog appears.
3. Make settings for one of the functions in the dialog and click the Ap-
ply button next to the settings.
All settings can be made by clicking the spin controls or by clicking in a
value field and entering a value numerically. The functions are described
below.
4. If you like, use other settings in the same way.
You can use the transport controls as usual while the dialog is open. This
allows you to play back the events to check out the changes.
5. When you are done, close the dialog.
Transpose
This function transposes the selected notes up or down, by the specified
number of semitones.
