PATTERN MODE 12. Job Finally, you can further improve the swing by adjusting the gate times of the notes in every other interval. 1. Phrase setting: Phrs Sets the phrase to which adjustment is applied. s Settings : 001 ... 256 2. Segment (M001:1:000 ~ M257: 1:000) Sets the area of the phrase over which adjustment is carried out. The first segment sets the measure, beat, and clock for the start point; the second segment sets the end point. s Settings : Measure: beat : clock 001:1:000 ... 999:8:479 3. Quantizing value The Quantize value selects the quantizing interval. You can set the value using the [NO - 1] or [YES + 1] button, or by pressing the appropriate note key on the numeric keypad. Notice that the settings create both "normal" and "triplet" intervals over the same space. The for example, sets quantizing lines at every eighth-note spacing and at every eighth-note-triplet spacing. s Settings : 32nd-note intervals 16th-triplet intervals 16th-note intervals 8th-triplet intervals 8th-note intervals Quarter-note-triplet intervals Quarter-note intervals 16th-note and 16th-triplet intervals 8th-note and 8th-triplet intervals Original data (assuming 4/4 meter) Quantizing strength = 100% (where quantize value = ) Quantizing strength = 50% (where quantize value = ) s Settings : 000% ... 100% 5. Swing rate This setting lets you apply a delay to the notes in every even-numbered quantizing interval (but see below) to produce a more swinging rhythm. This adjustment is carried out after quantizing is completed: first the notes are quantized, and then the swing delay (if any) is applied. If you are using a 32nd, 16th, 8th, or quarter-note quantizing value, the RM1x applies the delay to every even-numbered interval. If you are using an 8th-note, for example, then the notes in the first 8th-note interval are normal, the notes in the second 8th-note interval are delayed, the notes in third interval are normal, and so on. If you are using one of the triplet quantizing values, then the RM1x applies the delay to the notes in every third interval. If you are using the or quantizing value, the RM1x applies the delay to the non-triplet part of the rhythm only (to the or rhythm only). The "swing rate" is given as a scale value indicating the position for the shifted "beat." For non-triplet rhythms, a value of 50% leaves the position unchanged, while higher values apply a delay. (In this case, 100% represents double the length of the quantizing interval.) The available settings depend on the rhythm type, as described below. 4. Strength The Strength value sets the degree by which note events Where quantizing value is , , are pulled toward the nearest quantizing line. or : A setting of 100% pulls each note event all the way to the nearest quantizing line. A setting of 50% pulls each note only halfway to the nearest quantizing line. 0% 50% 75% Setting range 100% For the quantizing values indicated above, a 50% setting produces no adjustment, so that the even-numbered interval remains exactly centered. Higher values shift the interval to the right, to produce an added swing. The maximum setting is 75%, which shifts the interval by an amount equal to one-half the quantizing value.
