How can I quantize the drums all at once after the pattern is completed? Or is it only during programming / recording?
The problem is I have a few styles that were not well quantized in beggining...

I don't know what model keyboard you are using..but you should be able to load the pattern into the pattern sequencer, or 16 track sequencer...select the drum track and quantize the track (or all tracks)..

Quantization can be a good thing to correct mistakes in timing, but can also be a bad thing in that it kills the natural flow of a style and adds a robotic feel (just think of the Yamaha styles: they are all over-quantized).
Anyway, since the Audya apparently doesn't offer a complete style edit mode but only a style remix feature, you need to export all the parts of a style to a sequencer (in .mid format) and then use the quantize function of the sequencer itself; there you can choose the amount of quantization (1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, triplets, ecc). My advice would be to use the lowest amount possible, like 1/32 of a note, to avoid huge note shifting; you have to try and listen to the result until you are satisfied. Then you can import the midi sequence back to the Audya in style (pat) format; a program like Styleworks can do this conversion process very quickly. Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Ok guys! Thanks for your time.

It is unfortunate that the KETRON not keep the good things he had in older keyboards like the SD1 ...
why?

Of course you can to aply quantize in a pattern of Audya....

If its a Preset PAT please press:
1) STYLE/VIEW/SAVE to save in USER STYLE folder.

2) Now find the PAT that you have saved, and press EDIT to open the Pattern Editor of Audya.

3) From F6 - we have Displays the current Quantize Value.

4) From F7 - QUANTIZE: Quantizes the current recording data/
notes.

I try that but quantize not works. He only works after I record a single drum sound in pattern editor. If I leave pattern edit the quantize options stop working.

You can change your style with quantize and before leave from pattern edit press SAVE to save your changes.

Yes, I save the style!!

The style I'm trying to quantize comes from my old SD1 and I am not able to quantize the drums and bass...
I do not understand what is happening. I can only apply the quantize erasing the sound of drums that is wrong, record it again and then quantize it.
