10.6.1 Note-dependent Modulation

In order to set up a note-dependent modulation for a parameter, rst choose the desired

parameter from the Parameter menu on the upper left-hand side of the Note Page. In the

curve presentation in the center of the Note page you see the progress of the modulation

value over the entire tone; in the standard setting, the values of all notes are the equal. For

which reason you see a horizontal line. To adjust the Modulation Attitude, draw the desired

curve in this presentation using your mouse. This way, you can establish a modulation value

for the all MIDI note values very quickly.

If you nd this process too inaccurate, you can also set the target values for individual notes.

First determine the note to which you want to assign an individual value. You have two pos-

sible ways to select a note: Either change the value directly in Note control, or click on the

Keyboard switch and play the desired note on your MIDI keyboard or on the Virtual Keyboard.

With Scale control you can enter the value of the Modulation directly in the manner previously

described for the selected MIDI note.

10.6.2 Glide

The function Glide produces gradual transitions between multiple notes following after each–

known as Glissando. You might know this function under the name Portamento from other

instruments.

The Glide control lets you determine the duration of the pitch transitions. The default value

is 0; with this setting the function Glide is not active, and the tones are produced without

Glissando. If you enter a higher value, you thereby determine the duration of the Glissando

in milliseconds.

With the Legato switch you can switch between the portamento variants: in the mode Glide

(when the Legato switch is not pressed) the transition of the pitched notes is gradual and

independent of the manner of play. If you activate the Legato switch, the notes are only pro-

duced with a gradual transition when you are playing Legato. When you play Staccato – that

is, without overlapping the hold time – the transitions between notes are not gradual.
