Owner’s Manual
n Before executing the Note data Job, make sure that you specify the track (01~16, all) and range (measure : beat : clock) to which the Job is applied.
01: Quantize
Quantization is the process of adjusting the timing of note events by moving them closer to the nearest exact beat.
You can use this feature, for example, to improve the timing of a performance recorded in real time.
TR (Track)
001 : 1 : 000 - 999 : 4 : 479
Determines the track (01-16, all) and range of measures/beats/clocks over which the Job is applied.
Quantize (Resolution) Determines to what beats the note data in the specified track will be aligned.
Settings: 32nd note, 16th note triplet, 16th note, 8th note triplet, 8th note, 1/4 note triplet, 1/4 note, 16th note + 16th note triplet, 8th note
+ 8th note triplet
Strength The Strength value sets the “strength” by which note events are pulled toward the nearest quantize beats. A setting
of 100% produces exact timing. A setting of 0% results in no quantization.
Settings: 000%~100%
SwingRate Delays notes on even-numbered beats (backbeats) to produce a swing feel.
For example, if the meter is 4/4 and the quantize value is quarter notes, the 2nd and 4th beats of the measure will be
delayed. When a triplet quantize value is used, the last note of each triplet is delayed. When the quantize value is
even-numbered, beats will be delayed.
Settings: See below.
If the quantize value is 1/4 note, 8th note, 16th note, 32nd note: 50%~75%
A setting of 100% is equivalent to twice the length of the specified quantize value. A setting of 50% produces exact timing and
therefore no swing feel. Settings above 51% increase the amount of swing, with 75% being equivalent to a dotted-note delay.
If the quantize value is 1/4 note triplet, 8th note triplet, 16th note triplet: 66%~83%
A setting of 100% is equivalent to three times the length of the specified quantize value. A setting of 66% produces exact
timing and therefore no swing feel. Settings above 67% increase the amount of swing, with 83% being equivalent to a
sextuplet delay.
If the quantize value is 8th note + 8th note triplet, 16th note + 16th note triplet: 50%~66%
A setting of 100% is equivalent to twice the length of a 8th note or 16th note. A setting of 50% produces exact timing and
therefore no swing feel. Settings above 51% increase the amount of swing, with 66% being equivalent to a triplet delay.
n If a swing value other than 100% results in notes being positioned after other non-swing notes, the latter notes are delayed
accordingly.
GateTime Determines the gate time (the length of time a note sounds) of the even-numbered backbeat notes to enhance the
swing feel. When a triplet quantize value is used, the gate time of the last note of each triplet is adjusted.
When the quantize value is 8th note + 8th note triplet or 16th note + 16th note triplet, the gate time of the even-
numbered 8th note or 16th note beats will be adjusted. A setting of 100% leaves the original gate time unchanged.
If an adjusted gate time value is less than 1, the value is rounded off to 1.
Settings: 000%~200%
02: Modify Velocity
This Job alters the velocity values of the specified range of notes, letting you selectively boost or cut the volume of
those notes. Velocity changes are calculated as follows:
Adjusted velocity = (original velocity x Rate) + Offset
If the result is 0 or less, the value is set to 1. If the result is higher than 127, the value is set to 127.
TR (Track)
001 : 1 : 000 - 999 : 4 : 479
Determines the track (01-16, all) and range of measures/beats/clocks over which the Job is applied.
SetAll Sets the velocities of all target notes to the same fixed value (1 to 127). When set to “off” the Set All parameter has no
effect. When set to a value other than “off” the Rate and Offset parameters are unavailable and appear as “***” on
the display.
Settings: off (0), 001~127
Rate Determines the percentage by which the target notes will be shifted from their original velocities.
Settings below 100% reduce the velocities, and settings above 100% increase the velocities proportionately. When
the Set All parameter is not “OFF” this parameter appears as “***” and cannot be changed.
Settings: 000% ~ 200%, ***
Offset Adds a fixed value to the Rate-adjusted velocity values. A setting of 0 produces no change. Settings below 0 reduce
the velocities, and settings above 0 increase the velocities. When the Set All parameter is not “OFF” this parameter
appears as “***” and cannot be changed.
Settings: -127 ~ +127, ***
03: Modify Gate Time
This Job alters the gate times of the specified range of notes. Gate time changes are calculated as follows:
Adjusted gate time = (original gate time x Rate) + Offset
If the result is 0 or less, the value is rounded off to 1.
TR (Track)
001 : 1 : 000 - 999 : 4 : 479
Determines the track (01-16, all) and range of measures/beats/clocks over which the Job is applied.
SetAll Sets the gate times of all target notes to the same fixed value. When set to “off” the Set All parameter has no effect.
When set to a value other than “off,” the Rate and Offset parameters are unavailable and appear as “***” on the
display.
Settings: off (0), 0001 ~ 9999
