Turning Input Quantize on and off

Post by JSmith1234567 »

Am I missing something...is there no key-command to turn input quantize on and off?

Looks like you are correct. You can assign a command to open the window, but you have to click on the checkbox to enable it. A third party macro program might be able to fill in that last step. I.e., you'd use the COMMAND to bring the window to the front, then have the macro execute a click in that window at a certain point relative to the upper left corner, then the macro would dismiss the window. This could be used to toggle it on/off.

The option to insert a MIDI plugin to quantize is a reasonably fast alternative, but it doesn't help with making editing and/or notation functions work as you might want.

Very annoying that this is not in Preferences. So many things that could reduce the tedium of DP should be there, yet they're not.

Thanks!

Good idea about using a macro...I'll do it with Keyboard Maestro.

Thanks again.
