+ | ===== Helpful Hints ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Use quantization when timing needs to be precise and even a millisecond or two would make a difference. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Delay Plus Quantization**. You will sometimes need to have a delay before a quantized event to make sure that it fires on the NEXT quantization interval rather than right now as in the //Stop Clip Timing// example elsewhere on this page. If the clock is at 0, every quantization amount would trigger. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Dummy Actions**. If you need to quantize an action after a delay, you may need to create a dummy action that does nothing but delay. If the action itself is a play or stop or record action which has its own quantization settings, set the quantization within that action. If you need to use a " | ||
