functions for a diagram depicting the visual representation of
Pulse waves, illustrated on Page 111.
"Volume" - The volume output of each VCO can be
adjusted with this control. It is this parameter that permits the
output of the VCOs to be "mixed" so that their relative
volumes can be set. Range is from 0 to 63 where 63 is
maximum output and 0 effectively turns the VCO off.

KEYBOARD CONTROL
KEYBD When this is selected, the MATRIX-12 will be controlled from
the keyboard normally. If de-selected, the VCO will not be
tracked by the keyboard and will output a steady pitch that
will not change as keys are played. This steady pitch of the
VCO can be varied with the PAGE 1 FREQcontrol and be
modulated as usual.
LAG- Portamento/Glissando Select
Portamento or Glissando routing to the VCOs is selected with this parameter.
Portamento is described as a "sliding" between notes played on the keyboard.
Glissando quantizes this otherwize smooth glide so that the transition between
notes is made in semi-tone steps.
The specific operating parameters of Portamento - its "LAG IN" (source to be
Lagged), RATE (the speed of the Portamento) and MODE select- are
programmed in the FM/LAG Sub-Page discussed later in this section.
LAG
When this is selected and KEYBD is de-selected,
Portamento is routed to the VCO.
When LAG and KEYBD are selected together, Glissando
is routed to the VCO.
