Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

Thanks Ravi. I was able to find information about Mono/Unison mode 
by doing a search on those keywords in the PDF version of the 
manual. I highly recommend it to beginners like me, since it's 
easier to find info than in the printed manual.

have 4 complete Evolver's in them, and each voice doesn't *really* 
know what the other voice is doing, or that it exists with other 
voices. So when there is glide on in a poly patch, a voice will 
glide from where *it* last was, not the voice played before it. So 
if it last played a G (4 notes ago in the case of a poly or pek -- 
or 8 notes ago in the case of a PEK polychained to a Poly) and you 
give it a higher D, it will glide to that, the problem is that the 
last note you played might have also been a G (played by the voice 
before), then the next note will slide from the D to a G 
inexplicably. This goes for regular glide mode.

a new note on signal before its turned off the prior note (i.e. 
legato) before it will execute a glide. Thing is, in poly mode, the 
last note you are playing is a completely different voice and the 
new voice that needs to glide will have long ago gone off most 
likely and therefore won't glide.
