Logic 8 midi - quantizing releases

[phas3d]

Just use the transform function on the piano roll tab.

ok, that opened up a new world but i still cant figure out how to do what i need it to do...
i have a bass line with notes at varying lengths. i just want to quantize all of the releases so that they end at the nearest 8th note...

Sorry about that. Should have given you this simpler solution...

you want them ending earlier than that in many circumstances. otherwise you have no release phase in the sound.

quantizing the end might be good in many cases, unless you played something manually. in which case the release holds
a lot of the expression. altering the note length gate time in Logics parameters section should alter the length equally.
but those values are quite course.

hence where the Transformer window comes in.

but at any rate, if the release is right on the start of the next note the start of the next note masks the release
and the release masks the start of the next note.

I just set 'note length' to fixed, normalize, then either ...

1 use 'note length' to set the desired .....er.... note length

or

2 just go to the matrix, select all & drag them to the desired length



( or use transform as described )
