Correcting the timing of recorded events

You can correct the timing of recorded events.

01. When a sequence is stop, press [F1] (T.C.) key in the MAIN page.

Timing Correct window will open up.

02. In the Note value field, set the value for timing correction.

For example, if you set “1/16”, each position of the performance data will be gridded to the nearest 1/16 note.

You can set the Note values as follows:

1/8 = 1/8 note, 1/8(3) = 1/8 note triplets, 1/16 = 1/16 note, 1/16(3) = 1/16 note triplets, 1/32 = 1/32 note,

1/32(3) = 1/32 note triplets, OFF = NO timing correction.

Swing feature

You can set the swing value in the Swing% field. With the swing feature, the even numbered events set in the

Note value field will be off the rhythm according to the value in the Swing% field. With this feature you can create

the shuffle groove.

03. In the Time field, select the area to correct the timing.

04. In the Note field, hit the pad you wish to correct the timing.

To correct the timing of all events, leave it as ALL. To correct the timing of only events on a specific pad, hit

the pad. You can select several pads. If you hit a different pad by mistake, you can cancel the selection by

hitting the pad again. To restart the pad selection, turn the DATA wheel to the left. The value in the Note field

will be reset to ALL so that you can select pad from the beginning.

05. Press [F5] (DO IT) key.

The timing correction will start and the window will be close.
