This menu allows to play a selected part of a PRESET using the PORTAMENTO. The portamento is a tipical execution

mode common beetwen the acoustic instrument (i.e. violin, human voice, trombone) and it consist of a frequency

shift sliding, playing different notes.

Press the function button [F4] PORTAMENTO, the control menu appears on the screen

TIME/RATE This control affects the way that the SPEED setting is interpreted. Setting this parameter to TIME, the SPEED value

controls the actual amount of time it takes to slide from any note to any other note regardless of the “distance”

in pitch between the two. Thus the time taken to slide between any two notes will always be the same. Setting to

RATE, the SPEED value controls the amount of pitch change per second. This means that the time it takes to slide

from one note to another depends entirely on the “distance” it has to travel between the two. This means that the

time taken to slide between any two notes will be different depending on which notes are played.

SPEED

Adjust the time taken for the

pitch slide to occur.
