Changing styles with key switch

キースイッチ

“Keyswitch” can be used to change the playing style.
These switches can be found on the red area on the keyboard.

アーティキュレーション

By inputting MIDI notes in this area,
the playing style will instantly be switched.

Caution with legato

レガート

Legato will be applied for most playing.
To connect the sounds smoothly, make sure that the MIDI notes overlap.

In addition because the attack is a little slow,
we recommend setting the next note slightly before the grid to avoid a delayed sound.

Portamento techniques

ポルタメント

Portamento slides notes from one to another.

When “1st/2nd” are both set to “portamento,”
the pitch may sound unstable in some instances.

By applying “portamento” to only one or the other,
you can achieve a more natural sound.

Accenting techniques

アクセント

By using accents, you can emphasize attack.

By applying it to the first note of a phrase,
you can create a more lively and moving performance.
