ABSYNTH 5 Reference Manual – 126

You can activate the remote control of a Breakpoint by clicking on the colored Control switch

at the top-right of the Envelope Window. There are no global Macro Controls for the envelope

(other than the start and stop functions in the remote control). Clicking on a Breakpoint dis-

plays the following Breakpoint-specic features:

•

TimeCCmenu: In this menu you determine which Macro Control is responsible for con-

trolling the temporal positioning of the Breakpoint. The Time CC menu offers the follow-

ing sources of navigation:

▪ Notassigned: No Macro Control is assigned.

▪ MacroControl1to16: If you select one Macro Control from the list, this will be the

one that navigates the parameter.

▪

Velocity: The MIDI-Velocity-information is evaluated for the navigation of the parameter.

▪ PanLR(Left/Right): The left and right-axis position of the stereo-panorama is evalu-

ated for the navigation of the parameter.

▪

PanFB(Front/Back): The position of the front and back-axis of a surround-panorama

is evaluated for the navigation of the parameter.

▪

TimeScalecontrol: Denes the strength of the time scale. The signal coming from

the Macro Control relates to temporal positions from zero to the graphical value of the

Breakpoint. Positive values of the Time Scale control will move the time position of

the Breakpoint forward when the Macro Control value goes up, while negative values

will reverse the polarity of the control signal.

▪

AmpCC: With this you can determine from which Macro Control the amplitude of the

Breakpoints will be controlled. The list of the possible options is identical with the

list of options from parameter Time CC.

▪

AmpScalecontrol: Strength of the amplitude scale. Negative values lower the ampli-

tude while positive values boost the amplitude: For a value of -100, the signal coming

from the Macro Control relates to amplitudes from zero to the graphical value of the

Breakpoint; for a value of 100, the signal from the Macro Control relates to amplitudes

from the graphical value of the Breakpoint to the maximum amplitude.

To create playable sounds, you can control the amplitude of the Oscillator Envelope or the

Attack Time of a Filter Envelope via Velocity.
