Glide Modes
There are four modes that determine how glide behaves:
Fixed Rate: The time to transition between notes varies with the interval
between the notes; the greater the interval, the longer the transition time.
The glide rate is xed. This is the default glide mode.
Fixed Rate A: The same as Fixed Rate, but glide is only applied when
playing legato. That is, glide only occurs when a note is held until the
next note is played. This effectively allows glide to be turned on and off
from the keyboard.
Fixed Time: Glide is set to a xed time, regardless of the interval
between notes.
Fixed Time A: The same as Fixed Time, but glide only occurs when
playing legato.
To select a Glide Mode:
1. Press the glide button.
2. In the display menu, press Soft Key 3 (glide).
3. Turn Soft Knob 2 (glide mode) to select the mode you want.
4. Play a series of notes up and down the keyboard to hear the effect.
