The 10 quantize choices are 1/2, 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/12, 1/16, 1/24, 1/32, 1/48, 1/64. The +/-
buttons of the keypad can be used to scroll through the choices. The keypad buttons 0-9
can also be used to select the quantize value directly, with 0=1/2 and 9=1/64. The track
select buttons can be used to select the desired track(s) to be quantized. When quantize
is first pressed, all eight track LEDs will be lit, indicating that all tracks will be quantized if
RECORD is pressed. If a track button is pressed, all other tracks will turn off, and only that
track will be selected. From that point on, each track select button will turn on or off its
associated LED, so that any combination of tracks can be selected to be quantized.
Pressing the RECORD button initiates the quantizing, and changes the display to:
QUANTIZE DONE
This display remains until the RECORD button is released, which then returns the
sequencer to Its previous quantize display. The quantization process changes the start
point of each note to the nearest quantize beat, but leaves the note release point where it
was, which changes the actual note duration. Other quantizing options can be selected by
using the page up and page down buttons. Pressing the page up button scrolls through
the following choices:
QUANTIZE TO 1/16
NOTE START & END
QUANTIZE TO 1/16
NOTE END
QUANTIZE TO 1/16
KEEP DURATION
If RECORD is pressed with QUANTIZE NOTE START & END being displayed, the release
times of the notes will also be quantized to the selected quantize beat. IF NOTE END is
selected, only the release times of the notes will be quantized. If KEEP DURATION is
selected, a note's duration will remain constant, i.e., if the start of a note is moved 1/16
note ahead, the release will also move 1/16 ahead.
In SONG mode, the QUANTIZE button is used to select an amount of clock offset for each
track in a song. These offsets are global settings used by all songs, and do not affect the
individual parts directly. The purpose for this feature is to allow the user to compensate for
MIDI delays, and sound devices with slow attack times. While holding the QUANTIZE
button In song mode, the first track LED will light, all others will be off, and the display will
read as follows:
SHIFT TRACK TIME
fl0/384th NOTES
The value can be set from -48 to +48 384th notes (± 1/2 note) by using the keypad or the
+/- buttons. Positive values represent a shift forward in time, and negative values
represent a shift backward in time. When entering a value with the keypad, the sign
remains unchanged (except when entering 00, which is always positive). To change the
sign, the +/• keys must be used to "pass through" zero to the other side. Each track can be
selected and set independently. Of course, the first beat of the first part of a song cannot
be advanced (it cant read minds..).
