NOTE

NOTE:
• When recording your input actions, the SU700 automatically adjusts the timing of pad

actions and certain knob actions in accordance with you QUANTIZE setting. Since we
have set quantize to quarter-note, the SU700 will automatically move all of the
quantizable input actions to the nearest quarter-note interval (the nearest beat). For
more information about quantizing, see page 174.

• If you do not see the QUANTIZE= indication on the screen, you can always get it back

by pressing any of the pad-function buttons or the SOUND/[LEVEL], SOUND/[PAN],
SOUND/[LENGTH], or FILTER/[CUTOFF] knob-function button.
