Repeating a note never will produce portamento. Portamento slows down
note changes. Very interesting in this listing is that there is no
portamento when you jump from E back to C. Could you please play the
following:

C
E
G
B
G
E
C

is there alway portamento or only when the notes get higher?

You misunderstood. I meant: press and hold C and while holding the note
switch the footage setting 16" > 8" > 4" > 2" > 4" > 8" > 16" of the
VCO4. When you are back at 16" then release the key. Is there a
portamento caused by switching the octaves?

Aaaah! Things become clearer. I have to track the things in reverse. I
will come back later.
