MIDI in Samplitude Music Studio 2013 207
Quantization settings
The quantization settings can be found in the MIDI editor menu under "MIDI
functions -> Extended quantization" or in Samplitude Music Studio 2013's main menu
under "MIDI -> MIDI quantization settings".
The dialog with the settings is not "modal", i.e. you can leave it open if you wish, and
test certain passages with different settings.
The selected quantization settings may be visualized in the top of the dialog. The blue
lines indicate the target positions for the quantized notes, i.e. the snap points. The
gray area around this show the quantization window i.e. the target positions that are
affected by the quantization.
Q-grid/length: The quantization grid and length at which target points within the beat
on which the note start points or lengths move (see above).
Q threshold/ Q window: This parameter may be used to slightly vary quantization by
excluding notes from quantization that are very close to the next quantization value.
"Q window" refers to the interval to the left and right of a grid point; events will be
quantized within this range. Quantization does not take place outside of this window.
This means that events with distance less than the "threshold" or more then the
"window" from the grid point will not be quantized. The affected target range will be
indicated in gray in the dialog graphic.
