anyways.

Atom - "i don't spend time in step mode, but in "Grid Record" you can edit the
gate time for each note. pg 70-71 (pdf 82-83)."

actually messing with that parameter just changes the duration of the note/step. i was talking offsetting or initiating delay or pre-delay or pushing and pulling that particular track. no you cannot drill down on a note and move that actual step. it';s not possible on the CS.
but if you want to shift a whole entire track you can, but not one step in particular.

my PX-7 is having some surgery done and it won't be back in my paws till next weekend. so I'm remembering playing with Shift and then having all the parameters parameters to move the track back or forward. i guess it's cool that it's so finite, but i wish there was a way to be able to move it 1/32nds or 1/16th's in delay verses having the whole bar:beat:tick parameters in front of me.

this is how you create shuffle if you program on even notes, such as 2,4.6, etc by track shifting (or delaying the track). so my question is.... what actually are the values when playing with the data encoder? i hate it when i cannot figure stuff by myself quickly. so pushing an entire measure would be equivalent to what? does anyone have a break down of what the CS is doing? sorry, i wouldn't have to ask if my unit was next to me.
