Changing the Timing of a Recording
A window of 100 percent includes all notes and guarantees that all notes
will be shifted to lie exactly on the grid. The window extends half the
resolution distance before and after the quantization point. A window of 50
percent extends only a quarter of the way toward the adjacent quantization
points.
When you use Groove Quantize, you can also perform adjustments on
out-of-window events. There are four options:
Other Settings
If you want, you can restrict the types of events that are affected by the
Quantize commands to only notes, lyrics, and audio clips. If you choose
this option, SONAR will not modify other events, like controllers.
To Use the Quantize Command
1. Select the material you want to quantize using any of the selection tools
and commands.
2. Choose Process-Quantize to display the Quantize dialog box.
Option... How it works...
Do Not Change Notes outside the window are not changed.
Quantize to Resolution Notes outside the window are snapped to a
regular grid of the specified resolution.
Move to Nearest The window or sensitivity setting is ignored—all
notes are moved toward the nearest reference
event, regardless of how far off the grid they are
located.
Scale Time finds the two closest events before and after the
event in question that are within the window
sensitivity and adjusts any bracketed out-of-
window events so that their relative timing is the
same. This option can uniformly speed up, slow
down, or shift out-of-window events.
