Conventional

With
conventional
analog
synthesizers,
an
envelope is
usually
set
according
to
4
parameters
—
attack
time,
decay
time,
sustain
level and
release
time.
This
is what
is called
an
"ADSR"
type
enve-
lope
(ADSR
being
the
initial
letters
of
the 4
parameters)
as
shown
in Fig.
3.
In
order
to set
an
ADSR
envelope
with
the
CZ-1000's
envelope
generator, you
only
have
to
use
3
steps.

The
CZ-
1000 has
two
sound
generation
lines,
each
consisting
of DCO,
DCW
and
DC
A. The
sound
from
each
of
these
two
lines
can
be
output
either
directly
or in a
detuned
form
(with a
different
pitch).
This
means
that in effect
the
structure of the
CZ
-
1000
sound
generation
system
offers
4
lines.
(Fig.
1)
The
line
directly
output
from DCO
1 is
called
Line
1
(HI),
the
detuned
output
Line V
(HI).
In
the
same
manner,
the
line
directly
output
from DCO
2
is
called
Line
2
( ffl
),
the
detuned
output
Line
2'
(
\Z\
).
