Changing the rhythmic feel of a pattern (ASSIGN 2: QUANTIZE)
fig.QTE
You can change the rhythm feel of the performance data of a pattern. By modifying the timing and velocity (volume) of the notes
in the pattern, you can produce a rhythm feel that is different than that of the original pattern.
fig.Quantize
You can modify the note timing by the location at which you press the D-FIELD.
When TYPE is set to GROOVE, you can also modify the velocity by pressing a higher or lower location.

The note timing of the pattern will be corrected to-
ward the note value specified by the template set-
ting.

The timing of the backbeats of the pattern will be
adjusted to create a bouncy feel as in shuffle or

The note timing and velocity of the pattern will be
adjusted toward the values specified by the tem-

When TYPE is GRID
TEMPLATE Specify the note value to which the timing
will be aligned.
32, 16T, 16, 8T, 8, 4T, 4
