Quantize During Recording (Quantize)

“Quantize” is a function that corrects mistakes or discrepancies in the timing of the performance being recorded.

Timing problems almost always occur when recording performances using pads, a MIDI keyboard, or other instruments. This function corrects timing mistakes and allows you to make recordings with accurate timing.

Recorded performance

This is usually set to the shortest note appearing in the phrase to be recorded. When set to “OFF,” the pattern is then recorded with the timing used in performance.

Carry out the quantize when recording a song using Tap Playback. You may be unable to play back the song correctly with Tap Playback if quantize is set to “OFF” when the song is recorded.
