   Quantizing can be used for two main purposes:

1. To make sheet music that looks good.
2. To make your performance sound more "perfect".

  Rosegarden is supposed to be able to do either, but I've had trouble getting it to do #1 without also doing #2.

I'd also add 3., hoping not to confuse the OP, but it can also be used to add 'swing' to 'straight' rhythms and other similar funky stuff :-)

A while ago I did a quick demo of using the 'swing' parameter in Rosegarden's quantize for someone. Unfortunately I notice I did not show the matrix nor the quantize window long enough maybe - I think I was just trying to demonstrate the 'audio' result and swing capability

  That might be related to getting sheet music that looks good without touching the performance.

Thanks Ted,


I will try it next time I am in front of my piano and computer.

I will better understand your comments then.


One comment the person did say was that it was better to use it as you
were playing, vs on recorded items, because the results were better for
some reason.

When reading over what you wrote, it seems as though you quantisize the
recorded notes.

I'll try this and see how things work for me.

I'll bring my comments back and see what you and others say.

Thanks again for holding a beginners hand.  I will get better:)

Rosegarden does have quantization.  In my experience it works best
from the Matrix (piano roll) editor where you can clearly see the
results.

  Select a segment in the main window and press M to launch the matrix
editor.  Select some notes (or press Ctrl+A to select all).  Now
either press = or click on the "Q" toolbar button. This will launch
the quantize dialog.  From here, I would start with the "Grid
quantizer" as that's the only one I've been able to get to work.

  Experiment in here and don't be surprised if some of the fields seem
to do nothing.  The quantizers are a bit buggy.

Hello

I am trying to learn how to use a track system for making music. This is
a new experience for me.

In addition to this, I am tryign to write dow my music so that the music
is not lost from my brain:)

I was in a forum and some one mentioned about using a feature called
quantisation in order to clean up th enotes a bit.

Is this a feature in Rosegarden?

Thanks

Joseph
