Fig. 32 Quantize Display

Note that if you quantize a complex and rapid melody, several notes may be quantized to the same

quantize unit, resulting in chords. If this is not desirable, you can always quantize the original track

again, using a shorter quantize unit.

The Quantize procedure is as follows:

1) Enter the quantize length by moving the cursor to the first number on the QUANTIZE display and

using the HOME' and 'DEL keys to decrease or increase the quantize length (with a mouse, press

the right button and move the mouse left or right). The range is 1 through 24 (clocks).

Enter the number of the track to be quantized (the second number on the QUANTIZE display) in

the same manner. The third number indicates the track to which the quantized (corrected) data

will be transferred. This "destination track" number is entered in the same manner.
