Quantize
The QUANTIZE function can correct the timing
of your performance after it has been recor ded.
If the rhythm is slightly out of sync or inexact, it
will automatically be corrected to the sp ecified
quantize level.
1.On the SEQ MENU display, select RECORD
& EDIT.
2.On the RECORD & EDIT display, select
QUANTIZE.
•The display looks similar to the foll owing.
3.Use the TRACK ∧ and ∨ buttons to specify
the track number.
•You cannot select the track for the CONTROL,
RHYTHM or CHORD part.
•If ALL is selected, all the tracks are quantized.
4.Use the F IRST MEASURE ∧ and ∨ buttons
to specify the start point (measure number) .
5.Use the LAST MEASURE ∧ and ∨ buttons to
specify the end point (measure number).
6.Use the VAL UE ∧ and ∨ buttons to specify
the quantize level.
•Select from , , 3, , 3, , 3. (A 3 denotes a
triplet-type note.)
7.Use the STREN GTH ∧ and ∨ buttons to select
the amount of quantize (%).
•100% is a convenient setting. When s et to
100%, the performance data is quantized ex-
actly to the level specified fo r the VALUE
(“just”). For example , at 50%, the data is quan-
tized to a point that is half t hat of the just level.
By this setting, you can attain a n effect that is
very slightly off-beat from the rhythm.
8.Use the W INDOW ∧ and ∨ buttons to specify
the range (%) affected by the qua ntize setting.
•With the increment set to 100 for the VALUE,
at a + setting, data close to t he just point is
corrected, and at a – setting, data far from the
just point is corrected. For ex ample, if set to
–30% the quantize function affects dat a far
from the just point, and if set to +30% the
quantize function affects data close to the just
point. +100% is usually a convenient se tting.
•The +100% setting and the –100% setting are
the same.
Example: When VALUE is set to
