Say, 10%, and use Iterative Quantize function couple of times,Īre a good keyboard player, but want to improve timing of your Recording sound too robotish, you can set iterative strenght to, Is kind of step by step quantize, so if you don't won't to make your This way, a bad recording, could be straighten up, just a X% of way between it's current position to the closest quantize grid MIDI-> Quantize Settings-> Iterative strenght) will move an That iterative quantize won't move all notes straight to theĬlosest quantize grid position, but according to settings (menu-> Quantize works different than simple quantize. Requiring straight notes – pumpy kick drum. Quantizing may be very usefull when creating electronic tracks, dotted: 1/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 etc – to clarify – for example, if you have a 6/8 bar, and Q set to dotted 1/8 it will divide it into 4 even 8ths with a dot. tripplets: 1/2 tripplet, 1/4 tripplet, 1/8 tripplet etc. This way, we can have nice, totally straight 8ths. Random quantize, non quantize and swing set to 0.
