Hi, and a second topic:

Is it possible to switch the groove of, or below 50%, while still quantizising?
Or is that only possible when quantize switched off?
I love the groove, but I want to decide if its there or not.

50% is off. so theres no way to set it lower.

I believe the 50% (as oppesed to zero) refers to the position of the notes it swings. so 50% means the notes are exactly in between the notes that swing doesn't touch. 60% would mean the notes that swing moves are moved 10% closer to the next beat . . .

Hi, quick reply!

I see..I could swear it still "swings" a bit with 50% (but maybe its just that my tracks are too funky?). Isnt the groove famous for being never the same in two bars? Thats what I heard, something with random time variations or like that.

I just wondered if you can have the mpc play in a machine-like un-funky way.
