Creating and Editing Songs
You can correct for timing discrepancies in a recorded performance
by automatically aligning the music with the timing you specify.
This is called “Quantizing.”
As an example, let’s say that the timing of some quarter-notes in a
performance is a little off. In this case, you can quantize the
performance with quarter-note timing, thus making the timing
accurate.
At Step 4 of “Selecting the Editing Function” (p. 163), select
<Quantize>.
The following screen appears.
When finished with the Quantize settings, return to the Song Edit
screen.
You can delete a part of a performance by measure. When a portion
of a performance is deleted, the rest of the performance is shifted
up to fill the gap.
Erasing measures in a specified passage is called “deleting.”
At Step 4 of “Selecting the Editing Function” (p. 163), select
<Delete>.
The following screen appears.
