Section 7 — Voice Parameters EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual
The EPS-16 PLUS envelope is a descendant of the venerable ADSR (attack,
decay, sustain, release) envelope, with a number of refinements. While the
ADSR envelope gives you control over three time segments and one level, the
EPS-16 PLUS envelopes have six time segments and six levels.
What's more, the envelope parameters allow you to describe two entirely different
shapes; one for maximum velocity (HARD VEL) and one for minimum velocity
(SOFT VEL). When a keydown is received, the envelope generator actually
interpolates between the two, creating a curve that is a combination of the two
based on the incoming velocity.
EDIT/Env 1, Env 2, Env 3 Page
Use these parameters to adjust the envelopes. Each of the three Envelope pages
(EDIT/Env 1, EDIT/Env 2, and EDIT/Env 3) contain the following parameters.
HARD VEL shows the five levels for the envelope used with maximum velocity.
Level-1 is the initial level; in a traditional ADSR shape, Level-1 is always set to
zero. Level-5 is the sustain level. The previous illustration demonstrates a
HARD VEL curve.
SOFTVEL shows the five levels for the envelope used with minimum velocity.
