Roli Seaboard Block - 5.2 Playing Techniques

5.2 Playing Techniques
You can apply playing techniques associated with keyboard, string, and
electronic instruments to the Seaboard Block. Playing techniques include:
Strike and hold: Strike the keywave and hold for a duration without adding any
additional movement.
Glide vibrato: Pressing into a keywave and holding the point of your finger
there, wiggle your finger from side to side. The pitch-modulation effect of
vibrato will widen as you widen the arc of movement of your finger.
Glide glissando : Move your fingers along the pitch ribbons at the top and/or
bottom of the keywave surface. Glide bends can be up to two octaves long in
either direction.
Continuous Press modulation: While sustaining a note, increase and decrease
downward pressure on the keywave to modulate the note. A typical use would
be to add tremolo (amplitude or volume modulation) to the sound.
Legato bend: Press and continue to hold any note on the keywave surface with
one finger and play another note a half-step above or below with another
finger
Slide modulation: After striking a note, move your fingers up or down the
keywave to modulate the note. A common application is to raise or lower a
filter cutoff frequency in order to make the sound brighter or darker, but again,
any modulatable parameters in NOISE are fair game.
