Mod Source
Mod Amount
Modulation Source — Selects an additional modulator for the pitch of the voice
from among the 15 available modulation sources.
Modulation Amount — Determines the amount or depth by which the additional
modulation source will affect pitch.
Range: -99 to+99
Keyboard Pitch Tracking
Pitch Bank
Keyboard Pitch Tracking
Determines whether or not the pitch of the selected voice will change across the
keyboard or remain static at C4.
• ON — The pitch of a voice tracks with the keyboard.
• OFF — All keys play at the same pitch; C4.
Glide/Glide Time
Pitch Bank
Glide
Note:
Glide Time
Enables Glide (portamento) and several forms of monophonic voice assignment
in a sound. All three voices in a sound use the same Glide Time, but each voice
selects whether it will glide or not. There are four Glide Modes:
• OFF — Glide is off. This is normal polyphonic operation, with no portamento.
• RETRIGGER — This mode plays monophonically, with the envelope and
waveform retriggering, or restarting, each time there is a new key down.
• MINI — Similar to mono mode on old analog synths. The voice will play with
one-note polyphony and new notes will always glide from the previous note
(assuming Glide time is greater than zero). If you just want mono voice
assignment without glide, set "GlideMode=MINr and set the Glide time to
zero.
• LEGATO — When GlideMode=LEGATO, if you release a note the SQ-R
"forgets" that note. The SQ-R will not glide to notes when you play staccato —
play a new key with no other keys down. It will glide when you play legato —
play a new key while another key is down.
RETRIGGER, MINI, and LEGATO feature "note memory" — if you release a
key while still holding down another key, the pitch will return to note you are
holding.
Determines the amount of time that it takes for the pitch to glide smoothly from
one note to another.
Range: 00 to 99 (the higher the value, the longer the glide time)
