Rate (Shuffle Quantize Rate)
This parameter is used when Shuffle Quantize is selected. Specifies
how far apart you want a down-beat specified by the Shuffle
Resolution parameter to be from the up-beat that immediately
follows. By shifting the timing of an up-beat, you can create a
“swing” feel. A setting of “50%” will place the timing of the up-beat
note at the exact mid point between the down-beat and the next
down-beat. A setting of “0%” will move the up-beat note to the same
timing as the previous down-beat. A setting of “100%” will move it
to the same timing as the following down-beat.
Value:
0–100%

Quantize Template (Quantize Template)
Specifies the template you wish to use.
Here is a list of preset groove templates.
* The templates are designed for a 4/4 time signature. Applying them to
a performance of a different time signature may not produce the
desired result.
* The style names shown here are only for your convenience; they are
not intended to imply that the templates are usable only for the named
style. You can certainly try them with other styles of music.
Timing (Quantize Timing)
This specifies how much a note will move toward the timing
interval of the template you pick. At a setting of 100%, the
note will be perfectly timed with the template. At a setting of
0%, the note will not move at all.
