Yes, it probably is an industry standard and has been for many years, but I'm used to using the MV8800 where it indeed is remembered and even there I have to change things a lot whenever using Input Quantize (that's the equivalent to the destructive quantize on the SP more or less). It's the way it works.

Unless you quantize all and everything with only one setting, I don't quite see the need for it to remember it. I agree that it would be useful, don't get me wrong.



I know, but I was just saying it's really not that much work. Also, mine doesn't have the shuffle stuff, but yeah there's a bit more to that.

Well, lets say you're going to record a kick at 16.3 (or 4.3 something 'slow') quantize and a crash or something that should fall in line with that in the same quantize setting at the end of your loop. You can do both in one go. You hit record, play your kicks, let it loop around and add the crash. Make sure you have figured out where your kicks and crash samples are located before you start. You'll be doing this with patterns of only a few bars long, like 4 or something so it'll loop around fast and you don't have to wait.

Now you can add hi-hats or shaker shuffles in there with a different quantize, for example 32 or something good for faster pad play. You can probably add snares using the same quantize setting if you're accurate on the pads. Possibly erase it out, add it again whilst keeping things in motion.

You guys do know you don't have to stop recording to change the quantize, right? You can press record so it's flashing to check where you're samples are at. Heck, I tend to make beats in one go all the time.

You'll see you can plan beats so you don't need to switch between different quantize settings very often at all.

you basically, record your pattern, press record - wait til record starts blinking, press quantize set the value to 0, and record your unquantized pattern.
