Quantizing Segment Pitches to the Chord Track

You can quantize the pitches of specific note segments to the scale defined by chord events or scale events on the chord track.

Prerequisite

In the Project window, you have added a chord track and chord events.
The audio file is segmented.
You have opened the audio in the Sample Editor, and you have activated Edit VariAudio in the VariAudio section.
The Scale Assistant is set to Use Chord Track, and you have selected a Chord Track Mode.

Open the Pitch Snap Mode pop-up menu, and select an option to define how the segments snap to the pitches of the scale.
In the event display, select the note segments whose pitches you want to quantize to the selected Chord Track Mode.
Click Quantize Pitches.

Any pitches that do not match the pitches of the current chord or scale event on the chord track are quantized to the nearest pitches.
