52 Glide Sequential
Glide
Glide causes the pitch of a note to glide up or down from the pitch of the
previously played note. Glide is turned on and off using the
glide
switch,
but the
rate
must also be set. If the
glide
button is on, but
rate
is set to 0,
glide has no effect. Glide can be set individually for each oscillator.

To use Glide:
1. Press the
glide
button to turn Glide on.
2. Play a series of notes up and down the keyboard while you turn the
glide rate
knob to adjust the amount of glide.
Glide Modes
There are four modes that determine how glide behaves. You can set
your preferred mode using the
program
menu.
Fixed Rate: The time to transition between notes varies with the interval
between the notes; the greater the interval, the longer the transition time.
The glide rate is fixed. This is the default glide mode.
Fixed Rate A: The same as Fixed Rate, but glide is only applied when
playing legato. That is, glide only occurs when a note is held until the
next note is played. This effectively allows glide to be turned on and off
from the keyboard. This mode is only available when Unison is on.
Fixed Time: Glide is set to a fixed time, regardless of the interval
between notes. This mode is only available when Unison is on.
Fixed Time A: The same as Fixed Time, but glide only occurs when
playing legato.
