12. Job Where quantizing value is , or : The gate time is the length of time that a note is held. You can use this setting, therefore, to lengthen or shorten the notes in the swing-adjusted intervals. A setting of 100% leaves the original gate time un- changed. Higher settings increase the gate time, while lower settings shorten it. 0% 33% 66% 83% 100% Setting range With the triplet quantizing values (see above), the RM1x applies the shift to the third interval only. In this case, a 66% setting produces no adjustment (so that the third interval remains at its original position). Higher values shift the interval to the right. The maximum setting is 83%, which shifts the interval by an amount equal to one-half the quantizing value. (Notice that in this case, the 100% scale represents three times the quantizing length.) If an adjusted gate-time value is less than 1, the RM1x sets the value to 1. s Settings : 000% ... 100% ... 200% Job 02 Modify Velocity 1 2 PATTERN MODE Where quantizing value is , : 3 4 5 This job alters the velocity values of the specified range of notes (pitches) in the specified segment of the designated track. 0% 33% 50% 66% 100% Remember that velocity refers to the force with which a note is struck.

RM1x applies the shift only to the non-triplet part of the rhythm, as illustrated above. In this case, a setting of 50% produces no shift, while higher values shift the even interval to the right. Note that the maximum set- Using this job, you can choose to set all targeted notes to an identical velocity value, or you can apply a relative (linear) adjustment to the original velocity values. ting is 66%, which moves the interval all the way up to the position of the third note in the triplet rhythm. (The If making a relative adjustment, you use two parameters: the 100% scale represents double the or quantizing Rate and the Offset. The Rate value applies a proportional length.) s Settings : change to the velocity value, while the Offset value (which is applied after the Rate adjustment) adds a fixed value.

In this case, the RM1x will slide all of the notes within the interval by an equal amount. • Where STRENGTH is less than 100%, therefore, it is possible that the swing adjustment may push some notes into the next interval. If the RM1x must push a note beyond one or more notes lying in the next interval, it will shift these other notes to the same location as well. 6. Swing Gate Time This value applies a proportional adjustment to the gate timing of the notes within the swing-adjusted intervals. If the adjustment result is less than 1, the RM1x sets the value to 1. If the result is higher than 127, the RM1x sets the value to 127. 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 84 RM1x SEQUENCE REMIXER
