Subject: Portamento Unison Mode now available! - Software version 2.65k released

From: Michael Hawkins <korgpolyex800@...>
Date: 2017-04-02

HAWK software version 2.65k is now available from sourceforge.

You can get it here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/hawk800/files/Software/Version 2.65

It has one BIG new feature. Portamento Unison Mode!

Simply set up Chord mode as you would. Press Hold, press the desired chord. Press Chord twice to get into Portamento Chord Unison mode. The display will switch to "11 U" (or "11 1U" when in advanced sequencer mode).

Now your portamento mode just got much bigger!

I also modified CC control 86 (Poly Key Assign set) so that it uses absolute data values (0-4) corresponding with modes Poly, Hold, Chord, Portamento Mono and Portamento Unison.

Please let me know that you all love this new feature and please contribute if you can. Donations are really appreciated!


As a side note, I also learned how to do the easy 'last note' hit memory that Chord mode uses. So when time permits I will integrate that behavior into the portamento modes. That should dramatically improve the utility of portamento.
