The Different Types Of Quantization Available In Logic

Craig Mercure May 16, 2022 3 min read

One of the main decisions you’ll need to make when quantizing your MIDI recordings is what type of quantization to use. Logic provides a number of different quantization options, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Here’s a quick overview of the different types of quantization available in Logic:

– Grid Quantization: This is the most basic type of quantization, and simply rounds your MIDI notes to the nearest grid interval. This can be useful for cleaning up rough recordings, but can also make your MIDI performance sound overly rigid.

– Rhythmic Quantization: This type of quantization adjusts the timing of your MIDI notes to match the rhythm of a specified reference track. This is a great way to ensure that your MIDI performance stays in time with the rest of the music.

– Melodic Quantization: This type of quantization adjusts the pitch of your MIDI notes to match the pitch of a specified reference track. This can be useful for creating tight harmonies or ensuring that your MIDI performance stays in tune with the rest of the music.

– Random Quantization: This type of quantization randomly adjusts the timing and/or pitch of your MIDI notes. This can be used to create a more organic feel or to add some subtle variations to your performance.

how to quantize audio in logic

To quantize audio in Logic, you’ll need to use the Flex Time tool. Select the track that you want to quantize, then click on the Flex Time button in the main toolbar. Next, select the region that you want to quantize by clicking and dragging your mouse over it. Finally, click on the Quantize button in the Flex Time window and choose the desired quantization settings.

Continuous and Discrete Quantization

When quantizing your MIDI recordings, you’ll need to decide whether to use continuous or discrete quantization. Continuous quantization will automatically adjust the timing and/or pitch of your MIDI notes as you play them, while discrete quantization will only make changes when you explicitly tell it to.

Continuous quantization can be useful for keeping your performance in time with a reference track, but can also make your MIDI notes sound unnatural and robotic. Discrete quantization, on the other hand, can sound more natural, but can be difficult to use if you’re not already familiar with the quantization process.

Uniform and Non-uniform Quantization

Another decision you’ll need to make when quantizing your MIDI recordings is whether to use uniform or non-uniform quantization. Uniform quantization will adjust all of the notes in your performance by the same amount, while non-uniform quantization will allow you to set different quantization values for different notes.

Non-uniform quantization can be useful for creating more complex rhythms or for correcting specific timing errors. However, it can also be more difficult to use than uniform quantization, and can sometimes produce unexpected results.

Quantization Settings

When quantizing your MIDI recordings, you’ll need to choose the desired quantization settings. The most important setting is the quantization value, which specifies the grid interval that your MIDI notes will be rounded to. For example, if you set the quantization value to 1/4, then all of your MIDI notes will be rounded to the nearest quarter note.

Other important settings include the note resolution (which specifies the smallest unit of time that the quantizer will operate on), the swing amount (which determines how much the quantizer will emphasize the off-beats), and the humanize amount (which adds random variations to the timing and/or pitch of your MIDI notes).

Scalar and Vector Quantization

When quantizing your MIDI recordings, you’ll need to decide whether to use scalar or vector quantization. Scalar quantization will adjust the timing and/or pitch of your MIDI notes independently, while vector quantization will adjust both parameters together.
