You can 'shuffle' any beat in any pattern - even one single step if you like - it's all a matter of where you want something to fall. You can just apply swing to the snare track if you need it to drag against the groove. The percentages start at 50% which is no swing and up to 75% or above - 75% being full triplet or perfect shuffle. That shuffle can be in 8ths or 16ths - in 8ths - shuffle means each 2nd 8th gets pushed later against the perfect strict grid, in 16ths - each 2nd 16th gets pushed later against the perfect strict grid. The larger the percentage - the more each second 8th or second 16th step (or whichever step you nominate on the MD) is made to fall later against the grid. You can do some really cool things with two machines - hardware or software - one machine in 16 step hard quantise and another running 12 steps to a bar - play with shuffle values on the 12 step pattern for some mind bending feels. Hope this helps. David www.innerclocksystems.com
