Not the tuning bit, but the thing that makes a word start to sing before being on the exact note you plopped it on. I would look it up myself but I have no idea what it's even called, so an explanation of that is also very much appreciated.
So it turns out this is called consonant velocity, and that you can shorten it within the note properties (the Redditor who explained this to me suggest typing in a number around 160-180).
