Unison

When this is activated more than one voice will be played when you press a key. This gives you a “fatter”

sound, but at the same time reduces polyphony.

▼ If Poly mode is selected, two voices are used for each key. This allows you to play eight notes at the same

time (provided you are not using Layers).

▼ If Mono or Legato mode are selected, four voices are used for each key, for an even fatter sound.

Portamento

Portamento (Time)

This is used to set how long it takes for the pitch to slide from one pitch to the next. If you don’t want

any Portamento at all, set this knob to zero.

Auto

When this is activated (LED is lit), the pitch only slides if you play legato, that is if you play a new key

before lifting the previous.

The effect of this switch is pretty obvious when you have selected Mono or Legato “Play mode”. If, on

the other hand, Poly is selected, the Portamento effect will be slightly unpredictable if Auto is on. For

Poly mode, we therefore recommend you to turn Auto off.
