Parameter Value Description
Mono/Poly # MONO,
POLY Specifies how notes will be produced
MONO: Only one note at a time will sound.
POLY: More than one note can be played simultaneously.
It is effective to use the MONO setting when playing a patch of a single-note instrument such as sax
or flute.
Legato Switch OFF, ON Specifies whether legato will be used (ON) or not (OFF)
Legato is a function that is available when the Mono/Poly parameter is set to MONO. When Legato
is turned ON, pressing another key while the previously played key is still held down will cause the
pitch to change to the newly played key, while the note continues to sound. This can be used to sim-
ulate the hammering-on/pulling-off performance techniques used by a guitarist.
Legato Retrigger OFF, ON Selects whether the note will be retriggered when using Legato.
Normally, you will leave this “ON.” If this parameter is turned “OFF,” pressing another key while
the previously played key is still held down will cause only the pitch to change, which may cause an
unnatural-sounding result for some waveforms. It is best to turn this “OFF” when playing wind or
bowed-string instrument sounds, or when simulating a monophonic synthesizer.
* This setting is ignored if the Legato Switch is “OFF.”
PORTAMENTO
Portamento is a function that causes the Patch’s pitch to change smoothly from one note to the next note played. When the Key Mode Asign is
MONO, this can be effective in simulating performance techniques such as a violinist’s glissando.

OFF, ON Portamento on/off
Porta Mode
(Portamento Mode) NORMAL,
LEGATO Method of play for which the portamento effect will be applied
NORMAL: Portamento will always be applied.
LEGATO: Portamento will be applied only when you play legato (i.e., press the next note before re-
leasing the previous note).
Portamento Type RATE,
TIME How the difference in pitch between the notes you play will affect the time over which the pitch change
occurs
RATE: The time over which the pitch changes will be proportionate to the difference in pitch between
the two notes.
TIME: The pitch change will occur over a fixed time, regardless of the difference in pitch between the
two notes.
