Quantize

The QUANTIZE function can correct the timing
of your performance after it has been recorded.
If the rhythm is slightly out of sync or inexact, it
will automatically be corrected to the specified
quantize level.

1.

On the SEQ MENU display, select RECORD
& EDIT.

2.

On the RECORD & EDIT display, select
QUANTIZE.

3.

Use the TRACK

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.

buttons

to specify the start point (measure number).

5.

7.

Use the STRENGTH

and

buttons to select

the amount of quantize (%).

• 100% is a convenient setting. When set to

100%, the performance data is quantized ex-
actly to the level specified for the VALUE
(“just”). For example, at 50%, the data is quan-
tized to a point that is half that of the just level.
By this setting, you can attain an effect that is
very slightly off-beat from the rhythm.

8.

Use the WINDOW

and

buttons to specify

the range (%) affected by the quantize setting.

• With the increment set to 100 for the VALUE,

at a + setting, data close to the just point is
corrected, and at a – setting, data far from the
just point is corrected. For example, if set to
– 30% the quantize function affects data 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 setting.

• The +100% setting and the – 100% setting are

the same.

Example: When VALUE is set to
