Glide
You can add pitch glide (portamento) to any or all of the steps in a Pattern. It can be added to
the Pattern Steps for either Oscillator independently. Adding Glide to a step means that the note
assigned to the step will initially not be played at its normal pitch: it will ascend or descend to its
normal pitch over a period determined by the Glide Time setting. The initial pitch will be that of
the previously played note, so the glide will be a fall or a rise in pitch according to whether the
previous note was above or below the one at the step in question.
Glide settings are made in Glide View, which is opened by pressing Shift
15
and Gate
6
together.
Pad for current setting is lit
white. Default is Pad 5 (1/16).
Pad 1 is always red: indicates
“off” setting - i.e., no glide.
The lower two rows in Glide View show the Pattern steps, as in other Views. The upper two
rows allow the Glide Time to be set for each step, to one of 16 values between 0 and 127,
according to the following table:
