Xils3LE: any way to snap to notes in seq editor?

[garyboozy]

just noticed the new behaviour when drawing notes in the Xils3 LE seq with the mouse.
when drawing in notes with the old version, the notes were placed actually ON the note, whereas now the notes are placed where you click and don't snap to the keys. this is cool for weird detuned seqs etc, but what if you just want straight tunings? is there a setting somewhere? a key modifier when clicking in the notes?

Maybe it's a feature? Analog sequencers doesn't really "snap" and if you don't have perfect pitch (if you do it shouldn't be difficult to tune the notes in) it shouldn't be disturbing. If it sounds good it's probably good

Yes, I agree it could be nice to be able to snap the notes to the grid.
There will be something in the next update.
I don't know exactly how I will manage this : a simple button, a key-modifier, ....


Best regards

a key modifier would be great. i really like the ability to draw detuned notes, very cool. but standard tuning would be good too
cheers for the reply !

I noticed this too in the sequencer of the PolyKBII which I recently bought. Hasn't this been adressed yet? I can see only one advantage to the sequencer grid not snapping to tuned pitches, and that is being able to make out of tune sequences... I'd happily trade that "feature" in for being able to drag the notes to a different (quantized/in tune) pitch in the grid editor. We already have the drift parameter knob, doesn't that fill the out of tune needs?

The drift is global, while in the Sequencer you can choose wich note is affected by the pitch drift. A way to avoid that is to play the sequences in real time from a midi keyboard.

A Snap to grid, wich would only apply to vertical quantize, might be the solution. so a Snap button, and when its lit/active, clicking on a note would quantize it to perfect nearest pitch.

What do you guys think ?
