Q-Strength

Value range: 0% to 100%. Normal value: 100%.

This percentage value determines how far a note is shifted towards the nearest grid
position. 100% results in full quantization, 0% leaves the note at its recorded position.

Q-Range

Value range: 0 to 3840 ticks. Normal value: 0 ticks.

All notes further (in ticks) from the nearest grid position than the value specified here
are not quantized. A value of 0 means that every note is quantized.

If you enter negative values for Q-Range, you are using Far away only Quantize. In this
mode, only notes that fall outside the set range (in ticks) are moved to the ideal
quantization grid positions; while notes closer to an “ideal” position remain
unquantized. This moves the most poorly played notes (those outside the range) to
perfect timing positions on the quantization grid, or at least towards these positions,
depending on the Q-Strength setting.

Q-Flam

Value range: ±3840 ticks. Normal value: 0 ticks.

Notes with the same time position (chords) are spread out by this parameter. Positive
values produce an upwards arpeggio, negative values a downwards arpeggio. The first
note of the arpeggio is unaltered.

Q-Veloc

Value range:

99% to

+

127%. Normal value: 0%.

This percentage value determines the amount that the velocity values of quantized
notes are affected by the velocity values of the template MIDI Region (see “Groove” on
page 151).
At 0% the notes retain their original velocity, and at 100% they adopt the
velocity values of the template. Negative values alter the velocity so that the deviation
from the template becomes even greater.

Q-Length

Value range:

99% to

+

127%. Normal value: 0%.

This percentage value determines how strongly the note lengths of the quantized
notes are affected by the equivalent note lengths of the template MIDI Region. 0% has
no effect, while at 100%, the notes adopt the exact note lengths of the template.
Negative values alter the note lengths so that the deviation from the template is
increased.
