This allows you to correct the timing of notes you’ve
recorded. For example, if the timing of your performance
was slightly off in places, you can adjust the notes to precise
eighth or sixteenth notes. Changes made in Quantize affect
the entire Song.
Quantize timing settings (according to note value):
Off
If you select “1/8” or “1/16” for correction, the Swing Rate
parameter is shown (as a percentage value). Changing the
Swing Rate will make the Song sound more lively and give it
more of a swing or jazzy feel.
Setting range: 0% – 100%
If you select “1/8” for correction:
Default setting: Off
This allows you to specify whether a Song that starts at a
point other than the first beat of the first measure should be
played from the first actual note or from the beginning of
the Song. (Some Songs are recorded with initial settings and
non-note data at the very beginning of the Song; this
parameter allows you to skip those settings and play the
Song from the first note. It also allows you to skip over rests
that naturally occur before the pickup note in a Song.)
Settings:
Default setting: On
This allows you to select and audition the recorded contents
of a single channel. Playback starts from the first note.
Setting range: Ch 1 – Ch 16
Default setting: Ch 1
n Song data consists of 16 channels. Each instrument part is
assigned to a specific channel, so for this instrument, the
words “channel” and “track” have the same meaning.
n Channels that do not contain any data are not displayed.
However, for some Songs, all channels (including the
channels that contain no data) may be displayed.
This allows you to delete data of a single specified channel,
or of all 16 channels at once.
Setting range: Ch 1 – Ch 16, ALL (all channels)
Default setting: Ch 1
