Whenever a midi instrument is used to lay down a midi track (next imported into
RG) there are the inevitable inconsistancies like an 8th note repeated in the
next bar becomes a 16th plus a 16th rest. Is there a way to clean this up by
asking RG to feed rests of a certain duration or less to adjoining notes to be
absorbed? Or, if that's impossible then simply not show them although this
would lead to quantization issues? (I'm trying top produce sensible sheet music)
I hit that all the time. I'm not as precise a player as the timing
resolution MIDI offers and don't keep tempo very well. ("You've got a
natural swing," my classical piano instructor told me, and it took a lot
of work to overcome it!)
Same about the 16th note + 16th rest. MIDI timing says we released the
16th note before it should have ended (for a 16th note at that tempo).
My main MIDI keyboard is pretty dusty, so I wouldn't be surprised if
that's sometimes being caused by accumulated dust in the switches.
I get mine already digitized into a midi, then I work it over in RG. The guy
who does the midi track is a pro but still, I think it's near impossible to
consistently hit poerfect 16th except with a slow tempo. This shouild maybe be
a job for the midi instrument, to use only durations X-Y for notes/rests. I
mean sheet music is usually rudimentary and doesn't have to be microsecond
precise, that's left to execution and interpretation (i think).
Definitely not. When I do hymns, I usually only quanitze to 1/8th notes.
Also, RG experts correct where I'm wrong - but aren't rests calculated
rather than being actual events?
RG people - isn't there a setting that tells RG NOT to tie notes across
bar lines?
I think there is, somewhere in the prefs labyrinth, ran into it the other day
Yes.
When quantizing, maybe switch the Quantizer Type to Grid? I don't know
if it would help, but maybe the heuristic notation quantizer tries to be
sophisticated and guesses more?
