Playing modes.

- Keyboard mode: 12 semitones, which can be played like a piano.

- Gliss mode:

· Original technology created to simulate two-hand glissandos. It is able to generate two glissandos at the same time (like played with two hands), and will automatically change the sample groups between left hand(mellow) and right hand(bright).

· Users only need to set the beginning and end notes, and the system will automatically generates the pentatonic scale notes(according to the Key setting) in between.

· The time between the two notes will determine the speed of the glissando.

· The velocity difference will control the velocity change of the generated glissando notes, which enables users to create rich performances.

- Instrument mode: 21 strings are controlled by 21 white keys over 3 octaves. The turning is automatically changed by Key setting.
