Yes that would be cool. But there would have to be a range setting that
you could change. Otherwise the range would be from 10 to 480 bpm...
Yikes! Making small and precise changes would be impossible.

well... first of all.. you should recorrd measures without quantization and coppy them to
a "dummy track" in case you need those measures again
if there is a part of the song that you feel should not be quantized, then do
not select it. Use the left and right markers, then control M to quantize your
selection. That will be your best friend.
inserting tempo events manually is pretty annoying and tedious. if you want a
constant and smooth ritardando I think its better to use the progresssion tool,
it saves a lot of work. Select the region that needs to be slowed down and then
apply the tool. Note: it would be nice if the progression tool would contain
some number or value that would make it apply a progression randomly, (instead
of inserting events every 5 ticks or so.. it would be nice to be able to define
a pattern or let the computer make up a random one within the selected
areas)
Hope this bit helps.

Why do you think it's bee sticky? They should work like they did
earlier, but the changes in tempo will make them slower.
Does QWS have a "Tap Tempo" function, where playing a key on the
keyboard can generate tempo maps? If not it'd be a great thing to add,
as it is useful both for major changes in tempo and also rubato passages.

It does help, but I'm creating the last part, including the rit, by
copying previous measures which have already been quantized. This is
going to be a sticky wicket I fear.

Hi,
Nicole is right, Quantise actually alters the note data.
Here are two tricks I use for adding a rit at the end:
1. Play strictly according to the metronome throughout an entire track.
Then add tempo changes where you want the rit. It is sometimes
difficult to get the tempo changes right, but this is the MIDI
purist's best solution.
2. Alternatively, what I do sometimes is play according to the
metronome, but then ignore it when I want to add the rit at the end.
Then, quantise *only* the part before the rit.
Hope this helps.
James.

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.

That is the question. 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?
