FYI, the pitch of each voice stays where it was last played.
If you play a low note on one voice, then play a high note on
the same voice, the oscillator will need to slew up to the new
note before it plays. Turning background tuning off helps
because that is constantly changing every oscillator's pitch and
you won't know where it ends up. If you are playing in one
general register, or pitch, the slewing effect will be minimized.
Believe me, I tried to fix this anomoly, but was limited by the
slewing time of the oscillators. I thought that setting the fast
engine setting on the oscillators fixed it, but obviously not all
the way.
