Control Parameter Range Description
1 Glide O, On Toggles Glide eect
2 Glide Time 0-127 Controls Glide rate [1]
3 Glide Curve Exp (-64) > Lin (0) > Log (64) Sets Glide curve [1]
4 Glide Legato O, On If On, only legato playing activates Glide [1]
[1] This parameter is hidden when Glide = O.
Glide settings
Glide causes the pitch to slide between notes
rather than changing in chromatic steps. When
the Glide eect is enabled it reveals another three
parameters on Voice page 4.
The Glide curves are similar in shape to the
envelope segment curves:
• An exponential curve rises slowly at rst and
accelerates upward. When moving downward
it starts falling quickly and slows down as it
approaches its destination.
• A logarithmic curve does the opposite: It rises
quickly at rst and its rate of change slows as
it nears the peak. In the opposite direction
it starts falling slowly and accelerates until it
reaches its resting state.
• A linear curve rises and falls at the same rate
throughout its duration.
Enabling the Glide Legato setting changes the
way Glide works: staccato notes will not glide;
notes played in a legato fashion will glide.
Glide Legato can be less predictable when Polyphony mode = Poly. The reason: Each individual
voice has its own legato, and legato playing only happens when the same voice is retriggered.
For example, if voice 1 is the next one that will be triggered, playing a legato note will glide
voice 1 from its current note to the new note.

[1] The Scale Edit button becomes visible when Scale = Custom. Use it to access Scale Edit (p. 54).
[2] This read-only eld becomes visible when a microtuning scale is selected. See Master: Page 4 (p.
71) for Microtuning operations
Key Lock
The Key Lock parameter works with the preset
scales to specify which notes the keyboard are
allowed to play. It only applies to preset scales
(not Custom, Chromatic, or Microtuning).
Snap
Snap shortens the initial attack time to provide
sharper initial transients. When Snap is O the
original timing on the fade in of the waveform is
retained; when it’s On the start time is shortened
to be nearly instant. This gives bass and percussive
patches more presence.
