Portamento makes it possible to slide smoothly between notes, as is done with string and woodwind
instruments.
1.
Press TONE.
This displays the tone screen.
2.
Press UPPER PORT.
This displays “PORT”.
• If SUS is displayed, switch it to UPPER PORT (page EN-51).
3.
After pressing upper keyboard keys, press other upper keyboard keys.
This results in smooth transitions between the upper part notes.
4.
To turn off upper portamento, press UPPER PORT again.
This causes “PORT” to disappear from the display.
• You can also turn on upper portamento by pressing MENU and then PORTAMENTO. Next, on the
portamento screen that appears, press UPPER PORT.
• For information about the Upper Part, see “Layering and Splitting Tones” (page EN-81).
• You can use upper portamento and part portamento (page EN-53) to configure portamento settings.
If you used part portamento to turn on the upper part, the notes of the turned-on upper part transition
smoothly between each other even if upper part portamento is turned off.
• Effects are not applied to drum tones.
