[AH] Elkatwin 61

Does anyone here have experience with the Elkatwin 61?  We just 
refurbished one, and it is unbelievably wonderful - it's like layering 
two string machines, then running them through a sweet, sweet phaser - 
it's my new favorite synth-string sound!

We've gotten everything working, but there are two buttons for Glide 
(one each for the A and B sections) that I can't figure out.  While the 
LED comes on when you press either button, there is no audible effect.  
Since this is a paraphonic machine using octave dividers, glide in the 
portamento sense is not possible - except on the monophonic bass, but 
there is no effect there either.  And if it were a portamento function, 
you would expect a knob for the glide time, and there is none.  So what 
the heck is this Glide business?

This machine is really hard to find any info on - I can't find any type 
of manual online.  So I'm hoping an AH bro has some info or experience.
