AMP ENVELOPE
This is an ADSR envelope that is used to control overall amplitude:
The parameters are:
ATTACK This sets the attack time of the envelope. High values produce a long
attack time (several seconds).
DECAY This sets the time it takes for the amplitude to fall to the SUSTAIN level
(see below).
SUSTAIN This sets the level the sound will sustain at when holding a note down.
RELEASE This sets the time it takes for the sound to die away after the note is
released.
The graphic representation of the envelope shape is animated and updates in real-time as you
change these four parameters.
KEYSCALE This allows you to vary the envelope shape according to key position
(i.e. higher notes can have a faster, shorter envelope than lower notes in
order to simulate the natural characteristics of certain sounds such as
piano, for example).
ENV TEMPLATE This allows you to choose from a variety of preset envelope shapes.
NOTE: If you choose one of the templates and edit it in any way (tweak the attack or whatever),
it will revert to USER.
GOTO DEST This pops up a window and allows you to go directly to any places where
the AMP ENVELOPE may be routed.
