Slight portamento confusion

Post by tuz »

On my Fantom X6, I have two patches in a performance, in parts 1 and 2 on channels 1 and 2.
Here are the pertinent settings:
1 patch based on PRE-B:068 OilDrumBass • Poly • Portamento 0n, 42
2 patch based on PRE-D:040 DOC Stack • Mono • Portamento 0n, 19

What I want, on both of them, is for each note to slide (portamento) from the previous note, even if there is space between the notes (i.e., they are not played legato). This works perfectly on part 1 but not on part 2. I tried Poly on part 2 and that didn't work either. Any ideas about this?

Hey tuz,
This post is a little old so you probably figured this out already. There are two "Portamento Modes", Normal and Legato. Patch B:068 is set to Normal which is why it works as you desire. Patch D:040 is set to Legato so it doesn't. Simply edit patch D:040 to switch Portamento Mode to Normal and you get your desired result.
