Correct / fix the timing of RPPR part after it's recorded

Post by valhalla »

I recorded an RPPR drum part and want to fix the timing as it seems a little off. I thought there was a way to do this after you have recorded something as well as setting the quantize before you start recording. I cannot find how to correct the timing after it is recorded. Can someone please help with this? Thanks!

From Pattern/RPPR you can quantize as you're recording a pattern by first setting (Reso:)lution. But from Pattern/RPPR there is no quantize function to modify an existing pattern. The quantize function, with options for offset, intensity, and swing %, is available in the main sequencer.

So what you'd need to do is from Pattern/RPPR, select your pattern, pull down "Copy to Track" and specify a song, track, and starting measure where to copy your pattern as MIDI note data, then in the main sequencer quantize the measure(s) containing the notes for your pattern, then go back to Pattern/RPPR and pull down "Get from Track" specifying the same song, track, and starting measure with your sequencer edits to repopulate your pattern.

Save your edited RPPR pattern stored in your song data by saving SEQ to Media.

The timing can also be off if the pattern does not start exactly when you press a key. There may be a slight delay of even a few milliseconds that will be quite noticeable and "disturb the groove."

This can happen when the MIDI notes of the pattern are not "left-justified" to start exactly when you press a key.

The fix would be to use Quantize but this time to "nudge" the notes of the measures of the pattern left (-) or right (+) using the Offset field. The value range is between +/-192, corresponding to +/- one quarter note to offset.

To determine the value of the Offset to use, you can first look in the Event Editor to see the MIDI time of the first note of the first measure of a pattern. In most cases it should be (or adjusted to be) BT 01.000.
