For example, increasing the “Vel” option will bring the velocities of the all the MIDI notes closer to the central point. These can be used to quantize other MIDI parameters. There are a few other options at the bottom of the window, such as “Pan” and “Vel”. Sensitivity: This actually functions fairly similarly and measures how sensitive the notes will be to “snapping” into place.ĭuration: This can be used to shorten down notes and quantize the end times of your selected MIDI pattern. If this is fully selected, all the notes will start directly on the red lines. Start time: This alters the strength of how much your notes start times “snap” to the red lines. You can experiment with different options here, and each pattern will change the groove / swing of the MIDI notes.īelow the template selector, you have various adjustable knobs: By clicking the folder next to the template box you can choose various quantize patterns such as 16_Drummer_Swing and 8_hiphop. Click Quantize… as shown above, this will bring up a small pop-up window, as well as vertical red lines along the piano roll view.Īt the top of the quantize settings window, it should say Default. a DAW that is not available in analogue recording is the ability to undo a previous action.

Highlighting your song can serve two very different purposes: getting. You should have patterns and musical data that populate the playlist, unless you are actually recording an external audio such as vocals, violin, guitar, or turntables. The ‘Declick in all regions’ tool inside the ‘Regions’ option will remove any click or peak that will sound at the beginning of ANY Slicex marker, and the ‘Declick out all regions’ will remove any click or peak that will sound at the END of any Slicex marker.Let’s look at the quantize settings in a little more detail. A screenshot of FL Studio 10, a popular DAW by Image-Line. To highlight your song (the highlighted section will turn red), open the FL Studio Playlist by hitting F5. If you’re not used to use Slicex (it’s a shame) it just split the samples into different markers that can be launched as different sounds straight from the piano roll or directly from any other MIDI based device. At this point of the tutorial you will guess what ‘ Declick in all regions‘ and ‘ Declick out all regions‘ will do, but we will go a little further. We will focus inside the ‘Regions’ option, which contains several options like ‘Dump to piano roll’, ‘Normalize all regions’, ‘Declick in all regions’, ‘Declick out all regions’, ‘Perfect all regions’ and ‘Tune loop’.
