P. 58 Kawai Concert Performer Series Digital Piano Quantize Quantize automatically shifts the timing of a note. This can be used to correct imperfect timing in a performance by shifting notes that were played either too early or too late so they will fall exactly on the correct beat. For example, you can accurately align any out of time notes to the nearest 8thor 16th-note beat depending on the type of song you are quantizing. Sometimes quantizing all of your notes to exactly the same beat can make your playing sound too stiff. The Advanced Recorder quantize function allows you to set a quantize "Range" so only the notes that were very early or late are quantized. Notes that were almost perfect are not quantized thus keeping more of the original feeling in your music. L1 Selects the track that you wish to quantize. L1 L2 R1 R2 L2, L3 Selects the bar range that you want to quantize. Use the Dial to set the bar numbers. R2 Selects the note Resolution for quantization. Use the Dial to change the value. L3 R3 R4 L4 Selects the lowest note that you want to quantize. Use the Dial to change the note value. L4 R3, R4 Sets the Low and High Range for quantization. Use the Dial to change the value. L5 L5 R5 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 F7 F1 F2 F7 Returns you to the Advanced Recorder menu. Applies the quantization to your recording. · Resolution determines the timing value the quantize function will use to shift the notes you want to quantize. For example, setting a quarter note resolution will shift all of the quantized notes to the nearest quarter beat. Setting an eighth note resolution will shift all of the quantized notes to the nearest eighth beat and so on. In the Advanced Recorder, quantize values are expressed in note values and as a number that indicates how many clock beats each note value contains. The Advanced Recorder divides each beat in a bar into 96 smaller clock beats. A Quarter note is 96 clock beats, an eighth note is 48 clock beats, and a sixteenth note is 24 clock beats and so on. The quantize resolution range is from quarter notes (96 clocks), to 64th note triplets (4 clocks). Recording a Song P. 59 · Range sets up timing "borders" around the Resolution value you specify. Notes within these borders will not be quantized and notes outside the borders will be moved to the nearest beat specified by the resolution value (Quarter note, Eighth note, etc. ).
