Quantize Strength

[slacker]

Hi

I just have a quick newbie question.

Is there a way to set the quantize strength? I don't want a rigid quantize and want to keep a human element, some hosts will let you specify a percentage to define how much quantize is applied.

thanks

evening -

So far as I can tell it's not possible. You could try the "no grid" option in the qantize options and nudge the notes yourself to humainze your sequence (or you could quantize it first using one of the frid options, then choose "no grid" and take it from there.

Hi

I'm a newbie to Mu.Lab too and I can't see how to input anything other than 1/4 notes (the default?) in the piano roll.

How do I choose 1/8, 1/16, triplets etc when inputing with the mouse?

EDIT: OK I just found the grid options by right-clicking. Seems a bit 'long-winded' to have to go through menus & submenus to find this. Could it be added to the main screen as a row of small buttons?

It's a main goal to keep the main MU.LAB user interface as simple and basic as possible.

I know the shortcut system will sort this out for those who use shortcuts (of which I am one), but I really see this as a standard feature that deserves a place on the GUI just as much as zoom.

What comes up in my mind is a customizable button bar.

At first sight, this may fit within the current plans.

No promises yet though, must first be properly researched.

Taken notice about that on the whishlist.

Sounds like an excellent idea! I understand (and like) the idea of a clutter-free GUI, but if users can configure an area with their most often used functions then that would be a great addition.

Also (whilst writing) why does MULAB have a a pencil tool as well as an arrow?
One thing about Cubase(& other DAWs) that drives me mad is need to constantly having to keep switching between editing tools. The best I have seen is the way EnergyXT1/XT2 works where the tool automtically changes dependent on positioning - similar I guess to the way Pro Tools uses a "smart tool" - just a thought.... and it would remove 2 buttons from the GUI!

The pencil is fairly smart. But sometimes you really don't want it at all and being able to turn it off (without resorting to modifier keys) is nice.

From my point of view, being able to configure a set of commands that I could access through a single button, nesting submenus as I pleased, would be the idea UI approach: minimum clutter, maximum flexibility. (It's how I have my Windows desktop organised, too...)

Also MU.LAB changes the mouse tool depending on its position over a part/event.

You can also quickly / temporarily switch between The Arrow and Pencil tool by holding [Control] (OSX: [Command]).

The fact that there is a separate mouse tool box is for two reasons:

1) so you can choose your default tool (which can do all)
2) so newbie users who don't know about the [Control] option also have immediate access to all functionality.
