More people make styles than I thought. I am not ready to do that - just enjoying my first arranger for a few weeks now - but I am planning to.

So here is a question: if you make styles, how many bars are you recording per variation?

The reason I ask this, is because there were remarks made about quantizing and what I hate most is, to hear a certain tempo-mistake (like a note just too soon or just too late) come back every four bars. Then I'd rather quantize.
Also, with quantize you can move notes more to the beat, without exactly ON the beat. Like 50% quantizing instead of 100% percent (100% is indeed very robotic).
I made multipads and I don't quantize either (it's not even possible on the PSR multipads). But in one case I had to shift a few notes by hand to make it better.

However, if you make patterns of 16 bars fi, there is no (or not much) repetition and you can do without quantizing altogether.
