Glide
The Glide (or Portamento) section allows you to set the CrX4's portamento
parameters. Glide continuously changes the pitch from one note to the
next, connecting the notes and letting you smoothly glide from one to the
other.
The Glide Mode has 4 values:
–
Off: no Glide is applied
–
On: Glide is applied
–
Held: If notes overlap then Glide is applied, however if they don't
then the notes are played without Glide. This makes it possible to
apply Glide only to selected notes.
–
Bend: This mode allows you to apply a predetermined pitch bend to
each note. The bend range is set using the Range control just
below the Mode button. A bend range of -48 to +48 semitones is
available.
When Glide is on, the Time/Rate dial is used to set the length of time it
takes for the first note to reach that of the second note.
The Time/Rate switch below this dial has two settings: Time and Rate. They
determine the manner in which the pitch of one note moves to that of the
next note. When set to Time, it takes a constant amount of time to move
from one note to the next. In this case it will take the same amount of time
to reach the destination pitch regardless of whether the preceding notes
are a semitone apart or an octave apart. When set to Rate, the amount of
time it takes to move from one note to the next depends upon how far apart
the two notes are. The further apart the notes, the longer it will take for the
pitch of the first note to reach that of the following note.
