all events, not just notes. It irreversibly alters their posi-
tions ( only notes can be returned to their original re-
corded positions).
Quantizing Events: Select the events that you want to
quantize.
You open the pull-down Quantization menu by grabbing
the “Q” button shown here.
This is identical to the matching pull-down menu for the
playback parameters, and contains its own quantization
grid (for details see the section Quantization from page 135
onwards). As soon as you choose an item from the menu,
all the selected events are quantized.
Please remember that you can only reverse note quantiza-
tion. All other events are permanently shifted.
To apply the same quantization grid to another series of
selected events (even in other Editor windows), select
Functions > Quantize again, or click quickly on the “Q”
button again.
Note Quantization
Normally, all notes in a sequence are quantized according
to the Quantization parameter in the sequence parameter
box and the extended sequence parameter box (explained
in greater detail in the section Quantization from page 135
onwards).
To quantize single notes in either of the Note Editors (the
Matrix or Score Editors) you can use the Q tool, as well as
event quantize.
If you click on a single note (or a selected group ) with the
Quantize tool, and hold down the mouse button, the quan-
tize menu should open and you can choose the quantiza-
tion you want.
If you click quickly on notes, the last quantize value will be
used again, just as with the Quantize Again command.
If you click on the background with the Q tool you get the
usual rubber band for selection of several objects at once.
Special note for working in the Score window: the display
quantize setting will have an effect on how this works.
Unquantizing Notes: Note events can be returned to their
original record positions, or moved by hand, by selecting
the setting Qua off (3840),or by clicking on the Q button
while holding down ctrl.
You can also unquantize all the currentlyselected notes by
clicking on them with the Q tool while holding down ctrl.
You achieve the same result by selecting Functions > De-
Quantize.
