Not sure if this is a bug in cubase 9 or if i have accidentally activated a setting that I cant find to turn off.
when dragging MIDI note lenghts with grid snap turned on I can only snap to eighths. regardless of the quantize and or grid settings. Grid and quantize works as it should otherwise. Does anyone know what i might have inadvertantly done or can anybody confirm that dragging note lenghts works properly with grid snap in cubase 9
Hi,
Make sure, Length Quantize is displayed in the tool bar of your Key Editor. Probably 1/8 is set here. Click to it and set Quantize Link. Now the length is linked with the main Quantize setup.
It’s just stays the same, I set 1/32, 1/64 - nothing heps.
Make sure, you set Quantize Length, not the Grid, please.
Indeed, it solved the problem but the help of Cubase 9.5 is very light, also I found the Quantize length the other day and now can’t find it anymore… Could you be so kind to remind how/where to find it? Thanks a lot 
Hi,
Right-click to the toolbar of the editor window, please.
This fixed the same issue for me six years later (Cubase 11)!
It was driving me nuts. Not sure how it changed, but it was suddenly locked to 1/1. I haven’t ever used the Length Quantize function so I was having trouble locating it. When I added it to the Key Editor menu bar I was able to set it (back) to “Quantize Linked”.
Thanks!
Same here six years later! Why don’t they set up things like this right from the start…?
I feel like there is someone working on the dev team that is secretly doing this out of spite. I just spent 30+ minutes trying to find that stupid window. For whatever reason, it’s off by default in Cubase 12.
Nearly the entire idea I had is gone now because of that. And the excitement to … ya know, be inspired and make music is all but gone… Thanks for that.
I genuinely thank you guys for these instructions though. The documentation never even explains how to get to that menu on the page that talks about how to change the length of the notes.
Sometimes the manual can be quite helpful.
