Glide happens when uyou hit one note (C2) and then hit another note (C3)

The sounds will raise from the original to the latter, as opposed to just playing two seperate notes. The amount of glide you have set determines how exagerated the sound is

TIP: Glide also works if you have muted notes added to your score.

EG: sounded notes C2 C4 C2 C4 C2 C4
muted notes -------->E2 C3 E2 C3 E2


you can get alot of interesting effects this way =)

It's basically another name for the use of portamento but with extra thrills.

Think of it that way. Glide or portamento is like pitch bend, but the difference is that you involve the notion of time to specify how long the transition from note A to B should last as opposed to that of tempo of the transition from A to B with pitch bend.

When I use this it glides between all notes. Is there a way to get it to glide between some notes and not others?

:edit: duh, just noticed the glide parameter in the cords section, god I love this fucking machine :slayer:
