11.1.7 Adjusting the Step Grid and the Nudge Grid

The Step Grid defines regularly spaced-out timings (the “steps”) at which your events/notes can

be created, moved, etc. The Step Grid resolution corresponds to the step size, which directly

affects the precision of all Pattern editing actions, including quantization (see

11.4.7, Quan-

tizing Events/Notes

section for more on quantization).

The Step Grid also affects the step sequencer on your controller: Increasing the Step Grid resolution

(i.e. decreasing the step size) will make more steps available in your Pattern for placing events. See

11.4.2, Creating Events/Notes

for more information on the step sequencer.

In the Pattern Editor, the Step Grid is indicated by the gray vertical lines in the Event area:

The vertical lines represent the Step Grid in the Event area.
