Normalling
On powering up the synthesiser the voice stored in memory location 0 is
loaded, allowing a set of normalled connections to be automatically setup with
common patches and parameter values. Equally, additional normalled
schemes could be stored in other memory locations.
These settings will remain until modified by creating a patch to an input or
adjusting a knob. Removing a patch will not return the normalled state but
rather then connect that input to zero.
If you are using extensive normalling to save time it is highly recommended to
mark these connections in coloured pen on the front panel. Historically
modular synthesisers offered a ring around each knob so that settings could
be recorded by marking the desired position of the pointer, and the choice of a
white face plate for State Zero is no coincidence. STAEDTLER Lumocolor
non-permanent pens in the medium or broad size are perfect for this
application.
Portamento
No dedicated portamento function is provided, instead giving the user a choice
of methods.
Portamento (exponential)
Passing the pitch signal through a low pass filter provides exponential
portamento with a constant time for the pitch to arrive at the new note.
Glide (linear)
Passing the pitch signal through a slew rate limiter provides linear portamento
with a constant rate at which the pitch changes to the new note.
