Hi all.
I’ve been far from GNU audio news for some times. (just doing music!)
Today, someone ask me about 'quantize" for drum recording, and I don’t know what to answer. I know it’s a recurrent question.
Thanks. (links and tips are welcome!)
(1)For midi notes:
- select the midi notes you want to quantize (you must be in ‘E’-mousemode);
- right mouse button on anyone of the selected notes;
- choose ‘Quantize…’;
- select the duration (for example ‘Beats/4’) and press ‘Quantize’.
(2)For midi regions:
- select the midi region you want to quantize (you must be in ‘G’-mousemode);
- right mouse button on the selected region;
- choose ’ “region name” >MIDI>Quantize…’;
- select the duration (for example ‘Beats/4’) and press ‘Quantize’.
The difference between (1) and (2):
(1) - works for the selected notes only;
(2) - works for the hole region.
You can use the ‘Alt+5’ default shortcut.
(3)For audio regions:
- sure you are in ‘G’-mousemode;
- sure the ‘Snap/Grid Mode’ in the ‘Grid’-mode;
- select the ‘Snap/Grid Units’ (for example ‘Beats/4’);
- select the audio regions you want to quantize (grab them by mouse or select one by one holding the ‘Ctrl’ key);
- right mouse button on anyone of the selected regions;
- choose: Selected Regions>Position>Snap Position to Grid;
(3) - works for midi regions too.
Also you can choose audio and midi regions simultaneously and this will work

(?)Does anybody know the difference between two instances of ‘Quantize’ in the Keyboard Shortcuts:
