The 10 quanlize choices are 112, 114, 116, 1lg, 1112, 1/16, 1n4, 1132, 1148, 1164. The +/-
buttons of ths keypad can be ussd to scroll through lho choicos. The keypad builons 0-9
can also be us6d lo select lhs quantize value dkeclly, with O=1/2 and 9=l/64.
The track
sslec{ buttons can be used to solect tho desirod track(s) to be quantizod. When quantize
is tirst pIessed, all eight lrack LEDs will be lit, indicating that all lracks will bs quantizsd if
RECORD is pressed. lf a track button is pressed, all other lracks will turn ott, and only that
track will bs seloctsd. From that ooint on, each track select button will turn on or otf ils
associated LED, so that any combination of tracks can bs solsctod to bs quantized.
Prossing th6 BECORD button initiatss the quantizing, and changes the display to:
This display remains until the RECORD button is released, which then roturns the
sequencer lo its previous quantize display. The quantization process changes the start
point of each nole to the nsarest quantize beat, but lsaves ths not6 release point where it
was, which changos the aclual note duration. Other quantizing options en be selected by
using lhe page up and pago down buttons. Pr€ssing the page up buflon scrolls through
the following choices:
NOTE END
1/L6
lf BECORD is pressed with QUANTIZE NOTE START & END being displayed, rhe release
timss of lhe nol6s will also be quantized lo ths sglected quantize b6at. lF NOTE END is
solecled, only the rslsass times ol ths notes will be quantized. ll KEEP DURATION is
selected, a nots's duration will remain constanl. i.s.. il the start of a note is moved l/16
nots ahead, the rolease will also move 1/1 6 ahead.
ln SONG mode, the QUANTIZE buuon is used to select an amount of clock oflset for each
track in a song. These offsets are global settings used by all songs, and do nol atlect the
individual parts dkeclly. The purpose for this leaturs is to allow the user to compensale for
MlDl delays, and sound devices with slow attack limes. While holding the OUANTIZE
bulton in song mode, the lirst track LED will light, all others will bs off, and the display will
read as tollows:
NOTES
The value can be sst from -48 to +48 384th notes (+ 1 /2 noto) by using the ksypad or the
+/- buttons. Positivo values reprssent a shift forward in time, and negativs values
represent a shitt backward in time. Whsn entering a value with the k6ypad, the sign
remains unchanged (excepl whgn entering 00, which is always positive). To change lhe
sign, the +/- koys musl be ussd to 'pass through' zero lo the other side. Each track can be
solected and set independently. Of course, the first beat of ths tirst part ol a song cannot
be advanced (it can't read minds..).
