Quantization isn't a filter, it's a modification to the track's note values, so it's not a switch like that to alter things. For ritardandos, I'd suggest using a tempo change instead of quantization. On a broader scale, quantization is good for fixing note flubs and the like and if your rhythm isn't the best, but especially for percussion tracks don't quantize everything. If you want realistic rock drums, for example, quantize everything except the hi-hat, as that's where most rock drummers put their feel elements. For jazz don't quantize the ride cymbal. This will make your tracks sound more realistic.

I want to bring a song to a graceful rittard, but the quantization keeps getting in the way. Is there a way to turn it off, even for selected beats in tracks?
