GLIDE, DAMPER (FOOT SWITCH EFFECT)
e UPPER GLIDE
This effect is produced by lowering the note a semitone.
The
Glide
effect
can be used to imitate a Western or Hawaiian guitar. The return time of the
note
is set in advance
by the Upper
Glide
Lever
(common
with
Attack
Pitch Lever). Once
it is put into operation,
if the Foot Switch is operated
while a key is depressed during play, the note will be lowered by a semitone
immediately.
When
the
Foot
Switch
is cancelled,
the note
returns to its
original position.

e DAMPER
An
optional
trailing
note
can
be made
during
performance
common
to
both
Upper
and

For the Damper
effect, the Damper
tablet should
be put on and the Foot Switch
used.
In this case, Damper
action
will cancel
out the Sustain
effect.
Operate the Foot Switch
while
the Damper tablet is on to achieve a trailing note through the Damper effect.
e For Solo Portamento, explanation is provided on page 12 and Auto Rhythm

Note-----
e Vibrato effect will not be produced while Glide is on.
e If both the Vibraphone
Lever and Damper tablet are on, the Upper Key-
board tone will be cut as soon as the key is released. If, however, the Foot
Switch
is on, the tone returns to its original function. The Damper effect is
not connected with the Chimes.

This will effect all Upper and Lower Keyboard voices. The lower the lever is
set, the more pronounced the effect produced.
PEDAL
DYNAMIC
RANGE
CONTROL
When
you
wish
to accentuate
the Pedal
Keyboard
notes from the overall
Electone
sound, depress this button.
In this case, since this control volume
is limited to the maximum
level of the Expression
Pedal volume,
it varies
within smaller range than usual.
Note:
This effect does not affect the Percussion of Pedal Keyboard.
PITCH CONTROL
This is located to the upper right side of the Tone Preset Board and makes
it easy to carry out pitch adjustment in case of ensemble with other musical
instruments.
The pitch is raised by turning it to the right and is lowered by
turning it to the left (U.L.P. only}.
EXPRESSION PEDAL
This pedal is perfectly balanced,
in that you may
release your foot at any
given volume
level and
it will remain
in this position
until change
(very
useful for two pedal foot work).
