It works both in session view as well as in arrangement view.
Swing first detects if you're in session or in arrangement view. It will affect session clips only if you're in session view. It will affect arrangement clips only if you're in arrangement view.
So to quickly check if it works in arrangement view:
- make sure you're in arrangement view
- add Swing device to a track (any track, but I prefer the master track)
- set the percentage to about 60%
- make sure "quantize to" is set to 16th
- make sure amount set to 100%
- add an empty midi clip to a midi track
- add sixteenth notes right next to each other in a 16th grid (so 4 sixteenth in one count)
- click the "swing all clips" button.

If you check the sixteenth notes that you've just created you should see that every second sixteenth note is shifted a bit to the right. That's what creates the swing feel.

By the way, Swing also works with audio clips!

Hi Vinscuzzy, I purposely build it as an audio device so it can sit on any track you want, including the master track. This would be my preferred place to have it.

On a midi track, the device order would be: midi devices (=midi effects) - midi instruments (that output audio) - audio devices.

So the Swing device will sit in your midi tracks after all midi devices and after the midi instrument if that makes any sense.

If you have a specific use case why it would be a great idea to still have the Swing device as proper midi device, please let me know!

thanks so much Shinytheshiny! What kind of grooves / swings would you be interested to choose from? Right now I added all quantization options that you'd find in the quantize window because that makes the most sense to me.
