Swing The swing parameter causes every other
note to be delayed by a specified amount to produce
the “swing” effect. As the parameter value increases,
the delay amount increases. At 100%, the delay
amount is equal to one quantize grid length interval
(for example, a 1/16th note (semiquaver) at a quan-
tize grid length of 1/16th note).
The figure below shows the effects of applying swing
and quantizing attacks:
Randomize When
Randomize
is any value but zero,
the amount that notes are quantized is randomly var-
ied. This produces a more natural effect (sometimes
called a “human feel”) because notes don’t always
start or end exactly on the quantized values. Lower
Randomize
settings move the notes to random positions
closer to the quantize value while higher settings pro-
duce more variation.
