What is portamento?
It means ‘to play very softly'
A brass articulation that has a long volume fade
A setting that allows a note to slide from its current pitch to the pitch of the next note played
An articulation with a short attack followed by a crescendo

What is a special way that the Play engine can speed up load times?
Play uses CAF files to store Lossless encoded files for playback in real-time

In SD3, the MIDI files are located in the ‘MIDI performances' folder and can be quantized in different ways
In SD3, MIDI performances are not used. Instead, there is a new control system that is used to create tuning and timing patterns that are based on algorithms to emulate the performances of Mickey Hart
