Using the Groove function Reference (page 218 ) The Grid Groove function makes it possible to adjust the pitch, timing, length, and velocity of notes in a specified track on a measure-long 16th-note grid. This lets you easily come up with a wide variety of rhythmic feels and grooves that would be difficult or impossible to create using precise, yet rigid sequencer operations. Moreover, Grid Groove is a playback-only operation, meaning that it leaves the original recorded data intact. Grid Groove can also be applied to sample tracks that contain samples processed with the Slice function, as well as normal MIDI tracks.

MIDI recording to Song Tracks Basic Structure (page 51) · Reference (page 183) Now, take your basic building blocks and move over to the Song mode to do some more work on your song. Let’s say for the sake of example that you’ve recorded MIDI data for nearly all the tracks — except for maybe some rhythm guitar parts and some solos on piano and organ. The MOTIF gives you two methods of recording these. Realtime recording lets you record much as you would with a tape recorder, playing the parts in real time while you listen to the backing rhythm tracks you created earlier. The other method, Step recording, lets you enter each note individually, much like writing down the notes on paper.
