Hi Plinio,

Swing is in the *extended* parameter box, accessed by dbl-click on the text
of the standard parameter box.
Swing works on every odd count, of your quantize setting. So if you are
doing swing at a 16th setting, every 1/8th will be 'square' and the 1/16ths
between them will swing in time.
No swing (appears blank) is a 50% setting - the backbeats are exactly
halfway in between. Higher percentages make the backbeat progressively more
late.
Personally, I find the swing percentage control too coarse... Usually I
reduce the quantize strength to 30% or so.
The quantize patterns 16A, 8B, etc are another way to use swing. These are
preset pattern incorporating swing - the A patterns swing velocity (if you
use Quant Vel), B and onwards swing time, after B the swing is getting heavy
for my taste... I prefer to adjust the groove myself rather than use these
presets.
Cheers,
Thomas
