As I experiment more and more with RC, I realise that it has a very rich rhythm capability which (I think) is poorly understood. The ability to independently manipulate phrase rhythm and notes seems to have great potential.
However, the re-work that came in with RC v5.2 is not documented and seems to to be largely unused. The current manual discusses a collapsible Rhythm Inspector "Rhythm Processing" section that (sorta) makes sense. But this has now been replaced by a much richer Rhythm Processing "sub-inspector" that has many more options and sliders and mutator dice. And I can't work out what most of these are meant to do.
Is there any chance that this could be documented? Or are there any discussions of this that I failed to find on the forum?
Any documentation or guidance on Rhythm Processing

Probably best thing to do, is, just play with it. Open the rhythm dialog and the additional stuff side by side. Once you start moving sliders, it becomes apparent.
In reality, all the rhythm is, is note on or note off. So, you have a gazillion new ways to turn notes on and notes off.

Thanks.
I have discovered that when running stand-alone, RC has tooltips for most of the settings, though these rarely work in the VST for me. These are helping me understand (a bit!). And I am playing a basic chord sequence on loop while changing the settings - I will get there eventually.
