v To Quantize Tracks:
1.From the Sequencer Manage screen, press the Edit function key (F3).
2.Press the Tools function key (F2). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Quantize function key (F1). The following screen appears.
4.Select the Start and End time in bars/beats/ticks using the cursor keys to select the field and the Data Entry Control or INC/DEC keys to change the selection.
•Press the All Time function key to select everything in the selected track(s).
5.Select the range of tracks to be quantized.
•Press the All Trks function key to select all tracks.
6.Select the Quantize Amount. The selected section can be quantized to: 1/4 notes, 1/4 note triplets, 1/8 notes, 1/8 note triplets, 1/16 notes, 1/16 note triplets, 1/32 notes, 1/32 note triplets, 1/64 notes or 1/64 note triplets.
7.Select the Swing Percentage if desired. (50% = Off).

v To Transpose a Section:
1.From the Sequencer Manage screen, press the Edit function key (F3).
2.Press the Tools function key (F2). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Transpose function key (F2). The screen shown above appears.
4.Select the Start and End time in bars/beats/ticks using the cursor keys to select the field and the Data Entry Control or INC/DEC keys to change the selection.
•Press the All Time function key to select everything in the selected track.
5.Select the range of Tracks to be transposed by setting the Start and End tracks.
6.Select the Transpose Amount. The selected section can be transposed from -128 to +127 semitones.
7.Press OK to Transpose or Cancel to cancel the operation.
Sequence Velocity
This utility alters the velocity of recorded tracks and is a very powerful tool, allowing you to adjust the expression of many notes in one operation.
Velocity values can be scaled by a percentage amount or a fixed offset can be added to them. To illustrate the difference, suppose a note has a velocity of 50 and the Sequence Velocity Amount is set to 10. Using Offset would add 10 to 50 for a new velocity of 60. Using Percentage would increase the velocity by 10% of its original value. 10% of 50 = 5, resulting in a new velocity of 5.
v To Change the Velocity:
1.From the main sequencer screen, press the Edit function key (F3).
2.Press the Tools function key (F2). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Velocity function key (F3). The screen shown above appears.

4.Select the Start and End time in bars/beats/ticks using the cursor keys to select the field and the Data Entry Control or INC/DEC keys to change the selection.
•Press the All Time function key to select everything in the selected track.
5.Select the range of Tracks to be velocity scaled. Press the All Trks function key to select all tracks.
6.Select the Type of scaling (Percentage or Offset).
7.Select the Velocity Amount. Percentages range from 0% to 200%. You can offset the velocity from -127 to +127.
8.Press OK to change the Velocity or Cancel to cancel the operation.
Channelize
This tool lets you change the MIDI channel of a previously recorded track or section of a track. If the track contains multiple channels, they will all be converted to the new channel.
v To Channelize a Track:
1.From the main sequencer screen, press the Edit function key (F3).
2.Press the Tools function key (F2). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Chnlize function key (F4). The screen shown above appears.

Channel Extract
Use this tool when you want to separate individual MIDI channels from a multichannel track. After Channel Extraction, each MIDI channel in the multichannel track is assigned to its own new track.
v To Extract a Channel from a Track:
1.From the main sequencer screen, press the Edit function key (F3).
2.Press the Tools function key (F2). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Extract function key (F5). The screen shown above appears.
