Re: Arp Odyssey: any note leads to a high pitch

Sounds good!

The semitone change always occurs immediately on release. It is not never gradual. I tried increasing the portamento slider to hear if it could be change its speed but it can't.

The note stays the same pitch when it's done. The semitone shift is always an upward change. 90% of the time it is the equivalent of a semitone. 10% of the time it's bit more (up to a full note or note and a half). It never continues to move upward once that one upward swing has occurred.
