Good Morning:
I am still using Electra X v1. I've only recently become healthy enough to be able to make music. While I am salivating over the v2 upgrade, I have to make due with what I have until I have what I need to take it to the next level.
As we all know, Electra X is one powerful, super-charged synthesizer.
I have encountered something that I have been unable to accomplish and very well may not be supported, but there is no harm in asking right?
Each of the 4 synth layers has its own glide / portamento time value. I have not been able to find a way to use VST automation to manipulate that value during playback. I have dabbled with trying to use MIDI, but I haven't been successful with that approach either.
My first question would be, is it possible to automate that parameter?
Second, is it possible to do a bank / program change that would enable me to toggle between presets?
What I am doing now to accomplish this is instantiating multiple instances of the synth and using Reaper's VST bypass functionality to disable the instances that I am not using. It would be nice to be able to accomplish this with one instance, but it is by no means a necessity.
Thank you for any assistance that is offered.
