It's underdeveloped, and certainly not 100% functioning. So for effective use, another year?

Re: Ardour : Swing Function ?
In LMMS I select every other note so: 2th,4th,6th,8th.
Then set quantization to 1/64 or 1/92.
Then I move the selected noted till it sounds right.
This should work in about every daw.
I noticed this also in a vid of albeton, were there was a swing dial to do this.
I have been asking for swing, humanization and groove quantization in LMMS for years.
Although it can be a lot of work, when we understand what is happening we can do this manual note by note.
I know Cubase can do it, it already could on an Atari ST.
Albeton another program, without a Linux version can do it too.
You can pick grooves from a list.

Re: Ardour : Swing Function ?
Found an interesting vid.
He is just messing with the velocity. I can do this in LMMS.
He then uses a swing dial, but we can do this in the piano roll. (or what ever that is called in other daw)
Just move certain notes ahead or backwards.
