Live recorded trig won't shift to exactly on grid

I live recorded into a pattern, and then wanted to shift some notes directly onto the grid while leaving others alone or tweaking them slightly, so I used the micro timing buttons rather than quantizing. However, there was one trig that wouldn’t shift directly onto the grid this way. It was late, but shifting it backward toward the grid would only get as close as +1/64 before skipping to a - value on the next press of the left button. “ON GRID” was never displayed. I just deleted the note and manually re-entered it to get it right on the grid (after which micro timing could freely shift it off the grid and back on), but then I had to manually adjust the length too. It seems to imply that micro timing can be recorded at a finer resolution than the micro time buttons operate at?

Would be surprising…
Did you try to shift it to max before to go back to ON GRID?
Can you reproduce it ?

No, I didn’t go completely to max or min values. I realize too that it must have getting closer than 1/64 to the grid, but it was definitely going from positive values to negative, skipping over “ON GRID” I haven’t reproduced it since, but I haven’t been methodically attempting to (not sure how I would, was just a random occurrence of sloppy playing). This did occur shortly after I had a boot freeze and crash on the unit, so maybe just an artifact of that? I’ve also updated the OS from 1.50A to 1.51 after hearing back from tech support about the crash issue, so who knows if it will ever occur again.

Finger crossed.

I don’t like that way to write microtiming. Same on OT, but on Digis or Models it is simply ±23 values. Resolution seems to be 96 PPQN, hence 24 values per step. I don’t understand these 1/384 values.
