Quantizning not working on sp-404 but working on sp-303??

Post by najdzel »

Is this real fact? Quantizning not working on sp-404 but working on sp-303. Look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjWmYcpa3i8

I would like to buy sp-404 but when I show this video I have some doubt. Quantizning on sp-404SPX is a fiction??

yeah, quantise moves the note to the closest 16th (or whatever quantise setting you choose) either forward or backward.. so if u are more than half a 16th late, it will move forward to the next 16th division not back, and vice versa
Samples.

Last thing - If I play and record drums (almost right) and I set quantise - my recordable drums will be right (in point) or quantise option nothing change? Drums must be very precision - point to point (every milisecond is important).
