A function that causes audio, MIDI, or other events in a DAW to automatically “snap” or jump to the nearest division in a time “grid” in the DAW. For example, if the DAW’s quantization or timing grid were set to an eighth note, edited audio clip would “snap” to the nearest eighth-note in the grid. Snap to Grid is similar in concept to quantization.
