Mode
[Normal, Use Legato Offset]
This parameter is available only when Mono Legato is On.
Normal: When you play legato, the multisample, envelopes,
and LFOs will not be reset; only the pitch of the oscillator
will change. This setting is particularly effective for wind
instruments and analog synth sounds.
With this option, the pitch may occasionally be
incorrect, depending on which multisample you play,
and where on the keyboard you play.
Use Legato Offset: When you play legato, the second and
subsequent notes will use the legato start point specified for
each multisample, rather than the Start Offset (Start Offset
2–1a) setting.
This is effective when used with a multisample for which
you've assigned a specific legato offset point. For example,
you might use it to control the attack of a breathy, slow‐
attack sax sound. On some multisamples, this will have no
effect.
Envelopes and LFOs will still be reset, as they are with
detached playing.
Priority
Priority is available when the Voice Assign Mode is set to
Mono.
This parameter determines what happens when more than
one note is being held down.
Low: The lowest note will sound. Many vintage,
monophonic analog synths work this way
High: The highest note will sound.
Last: The most recently played note will sound.
Unison
Unison can be used in Mono mode.
On (checked): When Unison is on, the Program uses two or
more stacked, detuned voices to create a thick sound.
Use the Number of Voices and Detune parameters to set the
number of voices and amount of detuning, and the
Thickness parameter to control the character of the
detuning.
Off (unchecked): The Program plays normally.
Number of Voices
This controls the number of detuned voices that will be
played for each note when using Unison. It applies only
when Unison is On.
Detune
Detune is available when Unison is On.
This parameter sets the tuning spread for the Unison voices,
in cents (1/100 of a semitone). The Thickness parameter,
below, controls how the voices are distributed across the
detune amount. When Thickness is Off, the voices are
distributed evenly, centered around the basic pitch.
For instance, let's say that the Number of voices parameter
is set to 3, Detune is set to 24, and Thickness is Off:
Voice one will be detuned down by 12 cents, voice two will
not be detuned, and voice three will be detuned up by 12
cents.

3
As another example, let's say that Detune is still set to 24
and Thickness is still Off, but Number of voices is set to 4:
Voice one will still be detuned down by 12 cents, voice two
will be detuned down by 4 cents, voice three will be detuned
up by 4 cents, and voice 4 will be detuned up by 12 cents.

Thickness
Thickness is available when Unison is On.
This parameter controls the character of the detuning for the
unison voices.
[Low, High, Last]
Off: Unison voices will be evenly distributed across the
Detune range, as shown above.
01–09: Unison voices will be detuned in an asymmetric way,
increasing the complexity of the detune, and changing the
way in which the different pitches beat against one another.
This creates an effect similar to vintage analog synthesizers,
in which oscillators would frequently drift slightly out of
tune. Higher numbers increase the effect.
