audio you input.

Portamento creates a smooth transition in pitch between two notes.
SOLO/LEGATO Button (p. 19)

monophonic instruments.

This creates time-varying changes in pitch, such as
the subtle pitch deviation that occurs when you
begin blowing a note on a brass instrument, or the
dramatic pitch swoop of an electronic drum.
