Hey Frank,
Thanks for the response. Unfortunately that is pretty much what I expected
about portamento.

That would include the X5D too of course.....

Yes...please send them to me. That would be great! I've been looking for
great patches for the DX7 as well as the Korg. Do you know of any good
resources online for this? I would appreciate any patches you have for the
DX7.
Do you know if Sound Editor will work with the DX7 or is that just for Korg?
I was using SoundLib in the past for the DX.

That makes sense. Although considering it's ability to transpose, tune and
use other scale types, as well as note bending (like you said), one would
think they could have used this to facilitate portamento. In this mode they
could have tracked the last triggered key and use any one of it's ability to
alter the pitch including note bend as you mentioned, automatically and
smoothly. BUT they didn't do that so I should't be thinking about
it......(:D)
Anyway if you would send me the DX7 patches that would be great!
Thanks Frank!
Randy
