Quantizing
The
Quantize
command moves events to (or towards) an evenly-spaced timing grid. The Quantize
effect is similar to the
Process-MIDI Effects-Cakewalk FX-Quantize
command. For more
information, see “Other Settings” on page 274.
The quantize effect parameters are as follows:
To Quantize MIDI Data
1.
Select the data to be affected.
2.
Choose
Process-Quantize
to open the Quantize dialog box.
3.
Set the quantization parameters, as described in the table above.
4.
Click OK.
SONAR applies the specified quantization to the selected data.
Adding Echo/Delay
The
Echo Delay
command creates a series of repeating echoes of each note. The echo notes can
decrease or increase in velocity, and can be transposed from the original by regular intervals.
Parameter/Option...
Meaning...
Start Times
Quantize event start times.
Durations
Quantize event durations.
Resolution
The spacing of the grid used for quantization.
Tuplet
Specify the resolution as a tuplet note, for example 5 notes in the
time of 4.
Strength (%)
The strength of the adjustments. 100% indicates perfect
quantization; otherwise, the command moves the notes only part
way towards the desired position.
Swing (%)
The distortion of timing used to produce a swing feel. A value of
50% indicates a straight rendition; negative and positive values
produce distortion of the timing grid. For more information about
swing, see “Swing” on page 273.
Window (%)
The sensitivity of quantization. A value of 100% causes all notes
to be quantized. Lower values cause the effect not to quantize
notes that are far from the timing grid.
Offset (Ticks)
The offset of the quantization grid from the start of measure
boundaries. A value of 0 indicates perfect alignment. Values less
than 0 shift the grid points earlier; values greater than 0 shift the
grid later.
Randomize
Causes a random time offset to be added to or subtracted from
each new event time. You must also specify the maximum offset,
as a percentage of the quantization resolution.
