This setting specifies whether the
Legato Switch will be used (ON)
or not (OFF). Legato Switch is
valid when the Mono/Poly
parameter is set to “MONO.”
With the Legato Switch “ON,”
pressing a key while continuing
to press a previous key causes
the note to change pitch to the
pitch of the most recently pressed
key, sounding all the while. This
creates a smooth transition
between notes, which is effective
when you wish to simulate the
hammering on and pulling-off
techniques used by a guitarist.
When “TONE” is selected, the
Tone’s own settings take effect.
