The following will work:
The following will work too, but it will sound exactly the same as the example above, plus it's
more work:
3.2.2. Velocity
At its simplest, velocity controls how loud the note in the step is to be played. Velocity values
simulate the force with which you strike a piano key: the higher the value, the “harder” the note is
played. However, synthesizers allow many other variables to be controlled with the velocity value, so
it depends on your settings what velocity actually does.
The velocity layer shows the velocity value as a vertical bar next to the note layer value (from the first
note layer). The note layer value is merely displayed, and cannot be edited when the velocity layer is
visible (and vice versa), because the GP knob is used to edit the velocity value, not the note value.
3.2.3. Length
Gate length per step allows you to adjust how long a note will sound. Length is expressed as a
percentage for each step, from 1% to Gld. (=100%). Length can be stretched over several steps by
adjusting the gate length until the value for that step says “Gld.” (for glide), and then adjusting the
next step's length until “Gld.”, if you want to sustain the note to yet another step, and so on. You can
stop at any step when you've reached the length that you like by leaving the length value in that step
anywhere below 100% (glide). The “stretched over” steps should have their gates triggers switched
'off'.
In the example below, the note in step 1 will be glided into step 2, and the note in step 15 will
be glided into step 16.
