This parameter sets the fine adjustment of the
output
LEVEL parameter, described next.

LEVEL
Output Level
0 ··· 100
This parameter sets the overall output level of
the envelope. This is also the target level of the
ATTACK stage.
D2 LEVEL D2LEVL
Decay 2 Level
-100 ··· +100
ENV1 & ENV2
only
0 ··· 100
ENV3 only
The target level for the DECAY 1 slope; at this
point the
DECAY 2 time begins.
SUSTAIN SUSTAIN
Sustain Level
-100 ··· +100
ENV1 & ENV2
only
0 ··· 100
ENV3 only
The target level for the DECAY 2 slope; in
typical cases this is the “hold” level during a
sustain situation: a key on the A6’s keyboard is
being held down, the A6 is waiting for a MIDI
Note Off command or the end of the
GATE
from the built-in Sequencer or Arpeggiator.
R2 LEVEL R2LEVL
Release 2 Level
-100 ··· +100
ENV1 & ENV2
only
0 ··· 100
ENV3 only
The target level for the RELEASE 1 slope; at this
point the
RELEASE 2 time begins.

POLAR POSWAV
NEGWAV
This parameter allows you to select between a
normal or “positive” (
POSWAV) or inverted
(
NEGWAV) envelope. When inverted, the
envelope is turned “upside down”: the
envelope begins at maximum level and the
Attack stage transitions to zero. The Release 2
stage transitions the level back to maximum.
This parameter is available for Envelopes 1
and 2 only. Envelope 3 is positive only:
inverting
ENV 3 would cause it to release
indefinitely at maximum level, with nothing
to stop it.
