Logic pro x midi quantize

Hello!

When I quantize midi, it quantizes all tracks to same parameter. For example, if I have a kick and snare. Both on separate tracks. If I quantize the snare to 95 the kick also automatically goes to 95. Does anyone know how to fix this? I’d like to quantize my tracks differently at times. 
 

thanks I’m advance for any help!

Not the BPM.

For example. Say I have 3 tracks that all have midi regions. One is hi hats, one is kick and one is snare. I want to quantize the hats to 1/16 note 85% and I want to quantize the kick 1/8note 92%. Logic won’t let me do both. If changes all regions to whatever quantize setting I last selected. So in this case, everything would be at 1/8th note 92%. Does that make sense? I can send screen shots shortly

Not the BPM. Using logic 10.7.2

Upgrade to Logic 10.7.4 via your AppStore. Does it still happen?

Does this only happen in this one project, or does it always happen? Eg:
- Start a new fresh project, create two independent tracks and record some data into regions. Select one and quantise it, either using the region parameters or the piano roll quantizing method. Does it reproducibly affect the non-selected region as well?

At last here on 10.5.1, those values don't update to show what the notes are quantized to, they simply have the last entered values still displayed. So your regions are quantized individually, it's just the displayed values that don't reflect what you did quantize the notes to... Hope this makes sense...

I have 10.7.2 in trying to get 10.7.4 but I’m not seeing an option to update to that in the App Store. It just says “open” on Logic Pro 

Go to your "Purchased" section, and click the download icon on Logic.

If you don't see it, move the Logic 10.7.2 app to your desktop, restart the AppStore and try again...

10.7.4 requires Big Sur 11.5 or later. So it looks like there are some maintenance updates to Big Sur you can do, without having to upgrade completely to Monterey, and that procedure should be safe (though you should of course have system backups and be able to revert if necessary).

So I got everything updated and did some testing. 
I made 4 midi tracks. Quantize them all differently and it did work. However, it still shows whatever the last setting was on all my midi tracks which is a little annoying. But at least it’s working!

Yes, this is normal. It can't show you the quantise setting on all notes, because each note could have a different quantize setting, and you can select multiple notes. All the slider is saying is "Apply *this* level of quantize when I next quantize something...", it's not a current selection/note quantize display.
