I can't find a way to assign a Knob (e.g, Knob5) to control the portamento time for a patch. Surely this is possible.

Just guessing, but portamento on/off is controlled via CC #65. I believe you have to hook up an external switch, (next to the damper pedal switch) and trigger the portamento with that.

I'm not talking about turning it on or off. I want to adjust the portamento TIME

Yeah, I understand. I did not see a way to do that, so I figured the closest you can get is set the time in the portamento settings and then trigger it with the switch.

Portamento time is CC #5. I would definitely think it's possible to set up one of the knobs for that on the Controller / Modulation Knob page. ??

Well, I had already tried sending CC5 in from an external MIDI controller but it didn't affect the portamento time.

As for the Controller/Modulation Knob page, the only thing I could find there was the ability to change the CC value for "External", which I presume means the ability to control what gets sent to external devices.

I'm wondering if there's a real-time sysex message that will do this.

When you select Portamento time in your screen you can assign a AMS source to control it. As AMS sources you could use aftertouch, the different joystick axis or even knobs. Look at AMS sources at the end of the parameter guide.
