does anyone know what the #'s correspond to when editing a note's decay time in step edit?

i'm used to DP, in there you can set a note's decay to a whole note, 8th note triplet, etc.. or you can do it in samples (like 44,100 would equal a one second decay), or in real time

on the mpc is the decay value in milliseconds? is it arbitrary?


THANKS CUZ

if your taling about the "D" column in step edit,
I think it is for duration, and the numbers are
ticks...I.E. 96ticks = a quarter note
so I had a loop I wanted to make play for exactly
2 bars, to I set the D column to 768..works perfect
