Quantizing MIDI and Audio
Quantize Panel
196
Swing
Offsets every second position in the grid, creating a swing or shuffle feel.
NOTE
Swing is only available if Grid is set to a straight value and Tuplet is deactivated.
Catch Range
Allows you to set a value that determines that quantizing affects only audio or
MIDI within the set distance from the grid lines. This is reflected in the grid
display.
Non-Quantize
Creates a safe zone before and after the quantize positions. If you specify a
distance in ticks (120 ticks = one 16th note), events that lie within this zone are
not quantized. This way, slight variations are kept.
Grid Display
Shows the quantize grid. Quantized audio or MIDI is moved to the positions
indicated by the vertical grid lines.
Tuplet
Creates rhythmically more complex grids by dividing the grid into smaller steps,
and thereby creating n-tuplets.
Randomize
Allows you to set a distance in ticks, so that your audio or MIDI is quantized
to random positions within the specified distance from the quantize grid. This
allows for slight variations and, at the same time, prevents your audio or MIDI
from ending up too far away from the grid.
iQ Mode
Applies a loose quantization so that your audio or MIDI moves only part of the
way to the closest quantize grid position. The Iterative Strength value to the right
determines how close your audio or MIDI moves towards the grid.
NOTE
Iterative quantizing is based on the current, quantized positions and not on the
original event positions. You can repeatedly use the iQ mode to gradually move
your audio or MIDI closer to the quantize grid until you have found the right
timing.
MIDI CC
Moves controllers related to MIDI notes (pitchbend, etc.) automatically with the
notes when these are quantized.
Reset Quantize
Resets your audio or MIDI to its original, unquantized state.
