The Glide function is mainly intended for use when playing monophonically (see below). The glide char-
acteristics can be described as “constant rate”. “Constant rate” means that the greater the “distance” be-
tween two subsequent notes, the longer the glide time.

Turn the R
ATE
knob to adjust the glide rate.
Press the G
LIDE
button to select glide mode. ‘On’ means the glide is always active and ‘Auto’ that glide
is active only when you play legato (you press a new key before you release the previous key).
Note: If you use Glide in polyphonic mode, the glide will be unpredictable and perceived as more or
less random. This is because the glide is between voices rather than between keys. The glide will there-
fore be from the available voices’ latest note values to the new notes rather than from the previously
pressed keys. However, you can actually do parallel polyphonic Glide between keys in Legato mode
which is a unique feature of Nord Lead 3. See

The Voice Mode section consists of two parts, the Mono part and the Legato part. The two parts work
totally separate from each other but it’s combinations of the two that creates interesting effects.
