Go/Catch button in the display to go to a different measure
(see “Go/Catch” above)
• While the sequencer is running, you may use the Go/
Catch button in the display to see the currently playing

8. Touch the Insert button in the display to insert an event at
the Position shown in the display (a Note event with default

play to delete the selected event.
9. When the editing is complete, you may select a different
track (go to step 4).

Song Edit: Quantize
The quantize function corrects any rhythm error after recording.
After setting the various parameters, touch Execute to start the
operation.
Track
Use this parameter to select a track.
All Quantize will apply to all tracks.
Track 1…16 Quantize will apply only to the selected track.
Resolution
This parameter sets the quantization value. For example, when
you select a 1/8-note, all notes are moved to the nearest 1/8 divi-
sion. When you select 1/4, all notes are moved to the nearest 1/4
division.
(1/32)… (1/4)
Grid resolution, in musical values. A “b…f” char-
acter added after the value means swing-quanti-
zation. A “3” means triplet.
Start / End Tick
Use these parameters to set the starting and ending points of the
range to be quantized.
If you wish to select a four-measure sequence starting at the
beginning of the Song, the Start will be positioned at 1.01.000,
and the End at 5.01.000.

tion
