Key Modes and Unison Mode
Key Mode (sometimes called note priority) determines what note has
priority when more than one note is played on the keyboard or via MIDI.
This is particularly important when using Unison Mode:
• Low-Note Priority is most common in vintage synths and is often used
for playing trills by holding a note and repeatedly tapping a lower note.
• Low Retrigger causes the envelopes to be retriggered with each
keystroke.
• High Note and High Retrigger are similar to the low note settings,
except that the highest note is given priority.
• Last Note and Last Retrigger give priority to the last note played.
To choose the Key Mode:
1. Press the misc params button and use the parameter knob to scroll to
the desired mode.
2. Play a few notes to listen to the result.
Key Assign settings are only relevant to Unison mode. They do not affect poly-
phonic playback.
