1 QUANTIZE
The Quantize function allows you to align the timing of all the notes in a chan-
nel. For example, if you record the musical phrase shown at right, you may not
play it with absolute precision, and your performance may have been slightly
ahead of or behind the precise timing. Quantize is a convenient way of cor-
recting for this.

2 DELETE
You can delete the data of the specified channel in the Song. Select the chan-
nel whose data to be deleted by using the [1

SIZE
Selects the quantize size (resolution). For optimum results, you should set the
Quantize size to the shortest note value in the channel. For example, if eighth
notes are the shortest in the channel, you should use eighth note as the
Quantize size.
The three Quantize settings marked with asterisks (*) are exceptionally conve-
nient, since they allow you to quantize two different note values at the same
time. For example, when the straight eighth notes and eighth notes triplet are
contained in the same channel, if you quantize by the straight eighth notes,
all notes in the channel are quantized to straight eighth notes—completely
eliminating any triplet feel. However, if you use the eighth note + eighth note
triplet setting, both the straight and triplet notes will be quantized correctly.

STRENGTH
Determines how strongly the notes will be quantized. A setting of 100% pro-
duces exact timing. If a value less than 100% is selected, notes will be moved
toward the specified quantization beats according to the specified percent-
age. Applying less than 100% quantization lets you preserve some of the
“human” feel in the recording.
