The grid settings in the MIDI editor
In order to change the grid resolution in the MIDI editor, we simply Ctrl + click (right-click on Windows) and we will have a few options in the context menu:
- Adaptive Grid: This function means that when you are zooming in and out in the sample editor, the grid will adapt to its values. For example, using the Narrow option might make your grid 1/32 when you are fully zoomed out. As you start zooming in, you will start seeing smaller increments, such as 1/64 and so on (see Figure 4.11).
- Fixed Grid: This option will fix your grid value to a specific chosen value. For example, if you set it to 1/16, it will always show you 1/16, no matter how zoomed in you are (see Figure 4.11).
- Triplet Grid: This will change your grid to be able to sequence triplets (see Figure 4.11).
