One question---is there a way to adjust portamento in the Operator patches?

thanks
Yes, highlight the pitch envelope section by clicking on it.

And click on the red "G" to activate portamento or glide.

If you already downloaded the lesson in the previous post with a download.
DO IT AGAIN
My server is becoming a mess from all the downloads i put up.
So i gave you the wrong link :oops:


I knew there was something wrong. Portamento should have been the least of Pilcrow's worries :)

Anyway, Enjoy!!!

here's the right link.

Here's another little lesson that explains an often overlooked feature.
Clip automation is mostly used with looping clips.
But did you know that you can use these clips to modulate incoming audio signals or synths and effects without having to loop anything? (apart from the modulation signal)

If you already use this technique, then this lesson will not be of any interest to you.
For others, here it is.
