Using the Groove function
The Groove function makes it possible to adjust the pitch, timing, length, and velocity of notes in a specified track via a 1-measure
16th-note grid to create interesting, unique “grooves” that would not be possible with precise sequencer-like programming.
n The Groove settings are applied to all measures of the current Pattern. Keep in mind that you cannot apply different Groove settings to each measure.
n The Grid Groove function affects Pattern playback without actually changing the MIDI sequence data (created via the Recording, Sampling, File Loading,
and Patch functions). The Groove settings are handled separately from MIDI sequence data. See page 167.
