• Model the voice-leading of vintage synthesizers
• Control the resources required by individual Programs
This setting does not limit the Unison Voices parameter. For instance, if Max # of Notes is set to
6
, and Unison Voices
is set to
3
, you can play up to 6 notes, each with 3 Unison voices.
Mode = Mono
Mono Legato
[Off, On]
Mono Legato is available when Voice Assign Mode is set to
Mono
.
Legato means to play in a smooth, connected way; the next note is played before the last note is released.
On
: The first note in a legato phrase will sound normally; subsequent notes in the phrase will sound smoother (for
instance, envelopes will continue instead of restarting).
Off
: Legato playing will produce the same sound as detached playing.
Priority
[Low, High, Last]
Priority is available when Voice Assign Mode is set to
Mono
.
This determines what happens when more than one note is being held down.
Low:
The lowest note will sound. Many vintage monophonic analog synths work this way.
High:
The highest note will sound.
Last:
The most recently played note will sound.
