Quantizing is a function that changes the timing of notes by moving them towards a quantize
grid. For example, this grid may consist of straight sixteenth notes, in which case the notes
all get perfect sixteenth note timing.
NOTE
The main Quantize function in your Steinberg DAW is described in the Operation Manual.
Quantize Note
Sets the note value on which the quantize grid is based. Straight notes, triplets.
and dotted notes are available. For example, 16 means straight sixteenth notes
and 8T means eighth note triplets.
Swing
Allows you to offset every second position in the grid, creating a swing or shuffle
feel. The value is a percentage – the higher you set this, the farther to the right
every even grid position is moved.
Strength
Determines how close the notes should be moved to the quantize grid. If this is
set to 100 %, all notes are forced to the closest grid position. Lowering the setting
gradually loosens the timing.
Delay
Sets the delay time in milliseconds. This delay can be automated.
Realtime quantize
During live mode, this option can be used to change the timing of the notes that
are played so that they fit the quantize grid.
StepDesigner
StepDesigner is a MIDI pattern sequencer that sends out MIDI notes and additional
controller data according to the defined pattern. It does not make use of the incoming MIDI,
other than automation data (such as recorded pattern changes).
