and styles of playing. You can play with this setting and see if a more
tight or more open playing suits a particular song better.
5 Legato
5.1 Mode You can choose between two different legato modes here
(‘Legato I’ = typical legato playing, ‘Legato II’ = right hand legato
playing) and a tapping mode.
5.2 Glue | Hammer Ons/Pull Offs Higher values smooth the legato,
while lower values leave more of the attack portion.
5.3 Glue | Slides Higher values smooth the legato, while lower values
leave more of the attack portion.
5.4 Glue | Smooth Attacks Additional attack smoothing. Too high
values may sound unrealistic if used with clean amps.
5.5 One Fret-Slides If you play legato on a guitar you can either play a
Hammer On or a Pull Off or you can play a slide to the next note. You
can change the way the engine chooses to slide with the setting. If you
select ‘Time Threshold’ a slide is played if a note is held longer then the
time threshold before the next note is played. If you choose ‘Time
Threshold+Velo.<Last Velo.’ a slide is chosen if a note is held longer then
the time threshold before the next note is played and the next note is
played with a lower velocity than the previous note.
5.6 One Fret-Slides | Time Threshold You can change the time
threshold for slide playing here (see 6.5 On Fret-Slides).
5.7 One Fret-Slides | Limit You can limit the number of slides played in
a row here. On a guitar it’s not possible to play slides for a unlimited
number of times since with each slide the volume drops a little bit. A
guitar player will play sustain notes or Hammer Ons/Pull Offs between
the slides while playing legato. You can simulate this behavior with this
setting.
5.8 Retrigger You can switch the legato retriggering on or off here.
Legato retrigger allows you to play trills easily. If you play let’s say A2
and you press A#2 a Hammer On is played. If you keep A2 pressed and
release A#2 a A2 Pull Off is played again. You can turn it of or turn it on
for Solo, Legato or Solo and Legato mode.
5.9 Retrigger | Chord Rejection If two notes are played within the
Chord-Rejection time the engine assumes that a chord is played and
turns of the retrigger engine for these notes.
