How it works

Swing affects off-beat timing. At 50% notes are straight, at 66% they have a triplet feel, at 75% they're heavily swung.

Categories:

Straight = standard notes
Dotted = 1.5× length
Triplet = 2/3× length
Super Fast = 128th-256th
Mega Long = 6-16 whole notes (ambient reverbs)

Pro tips:

  • Dotted 8th = classic vocal delay bounce
  • Super Fast (128th-256th) = reverb pre-delay (1-5ms)
  • Mega Long = ambient pads & long reverb tails
  • Swing values = human-feeling grooves
