CHAPTER 17/ LEGATO SETUP
Legato Mode | Slides | Probability:
If it’s not possible to play a legato articulation like a hammer on or a pull o,
because you setup “MAX RANGE”, “MAX CONSECUTIVE” or “MAX TIME
DIFFERENCE” in a way that limits those articulations, a slide is played
instead if you changed the “Legato <> Range” knob to slide. For example: if
you play E2 followed by G2 and you set “Max Range” for hammer ons to 2,
a slide up will be played instead. The “Probability” settings allows you to
setup how often a slide is randomly played. If no slide is played, the start
articulation is used instead.
LEGATO MODE | TRANSITION
The transition parameters allow you to setup the way the legato engine is
connected to the legato samples for each articulation (Hammer Ons, Pull
Os, Slide 1 Fret and Slide 2 Frets). “By Legato AI” means that an
articulation is automatically selected by the legato logic. “By Keyswitch”
means that you activated an articulation via keyswitch.
Transition | X-Fade:
The “Fade In” parameter allows you to setup how much the new note is
crossfaded with the last note. Lower values add more attack, higher values
result in a smoother transition.
Transition | Time | LoVel
Transition | Time | HiVel:
The “Time” parameter allows you to setup how much of the transition
portion in the sample is played. Lower values result in a more direct
response, while higher values will add more of a glide eect. You can setup
dierent values for notes played with low velocity and for notes played with
high velocity.
Legato | Transient:
With the “Transient” setting you can smoothen a transition (an example
would be a hammer on to a pull o) or you can add more attack. Lower
attack settings will result in a smoother sound while higher attack settings
will add more attack. The sustain parameter allows you to extend or shorten
the sustain phase of the new note in a transition.

Legato | Max Range:
Setup the maximum range in which hammer ons, pull os or slides are
played here. If you play E2 followed by F#2 on the lowest string and you
setup the max range for a hammer on to 1, the hammer on won’t be played
in because the new note is 2 frets away from the last note.
• Hammer Ons
• Pull Os
• Slides
Legato | Max Consecutive:
Setup the maximum number of hammer ons, pull os or slides than can be
played in a row here. If you set ‘Max Consecutive’ for hammer ons to 1 and
you play E2 followed by F2 and F#2, only F2 will trigger a hammer on and
F#2 will be played with the start articulation instead.
• Hammer Ons
• Pull Os
• Slides
Legato | Max Time Dierence:
Setup the maximum time dierence in which hammer ons, pull os or slides
can be played here. If you set the “Max Time Dierence” for hammer ons to
500ms and you play E2 followed by F2 and you play F2 in less than 500ms,
a hammer on will be played. If you play F2 after 500ms it will be played
with the start articulation instead.

Transition | X-Fade:
The “Fade In” parameter allows you to setup a per string oset of how
much the new note is crossfaded with the last note. Lower values add more
attack, higher values result in a smoother transition.
Transition | X-Fade:
The “Sample Start” parameter allows you to setup a sample start oset per
string. Lower values result in more attack, higher values will cut away more
of the attack portion of the sample.
