Amplitude Envelope & Balance Envelope
Edit Sound - Amplitude Envelope Editor Edit Sound - Amplitude Envelope control with Sustain active
Valid for all Algorithms. Dual 1 and Dual 2 acti-
vate the Amp. Envel. 1 and Amp. Envel. 2 edi-
tors; Dual 3 and Dual 4 share an Amp. Envelope
with a Balance control.
The Amplitude Envelope represents the volume
displacement of the Sound over time. This edi-
tor allows you to program the Key On Envelope,
the Key Off Envelope and the Envelope Track-
ing. In practice, the Key On and Key Off Enve-
lopes correspond to the traditional ADSR param-
eters (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release).
Amplitude Envelope Control
Envelope finish Determines the note from which the
Key Off envelope cannot interrupt the
Amp. envelope on its natural course
to completion, indispensable to simu-
late, for example, the acoustic piano
where no dampers are applied from
the note A6 onwards; the sound con-
tinues indefinitely after release.
When this parameter is not set to
“Off”, the last segment of the Key On
Envelope sets to 0 automatically and
cannot be modified; this is to prevent
the sound from playing continually
after release due to the deactivated
Key Off Envelope.
Assignable values: Off, A0 … C8.
Segment 1 rate Segment 1 corresponds to the Attack
dynamic sens. phase. This parameter ties the Attack
rate of the Sound to key velocity.
Positive values increase the Attack
rate with increased key velocity while
negative values produce the inverse
effect with increased key velocity.
Assignable values: –7 ... +7.
0 = no response.
Key Off rate Links the response of the Key Off
dynamic sens. Envelope rate to the release veloc-
ity. The Key Off Envelope corre-
sponds to the Release phase.
Positive values increase the comple-
tion speed of the Key Off Envelope
with increased key release velocity,
while negative values slow down the
completion speed with increased key
release velocity.
Assignable values: –7 ... +7.
0 = no response.
Sustain (F5) This parameter fixes a sustain level
independent of the release envelope.
Activation of this parameter depends
on the status of the Sustain function.
Press soft button F5 to activate Sus-
tain (shown in negative highlight).
Press again to deactivate Sustain.
Assignable values: 0 … 127.
