NORD MODULAR G2 V1.1 11. Module reference: Envelope group

Page 143

A high logic signal appearing at this yellow input will trig the envelope. The LED lights up

while the envelope is receiving a signal with a value greater than 0 units. A triggered enve-

lope only needs a short high logic signal to start. When the envelope has started after a Trig signal, it will

proceed to the very end of the cycle even if the Trig signal drops to zero

N/R

By default, when you release a key and

then press is again, the envelope will re-

start the attack stage at the current re-

lease level and not from zero. This is

normally the behavior you would want

in an amplitude envelope. However,

for pitch and filter envelopes it’s often

more desirable if the envelope always

restarts at zero level. Click the N/R

button to force the envelope to always

restart the attack stage at zero level.

AM AM

A control signal input used for controlling the overall amplitude of the envelope. If you want

a velocity sensitive envelope, patch any of the Velocity output of the Keyboard module to the

AM input of the Envelope module.

Set the characteristics of the attack

and decay/release stage(s) of the enve-

lope by clicking this scroll button.

There are four alternatives: Logarith-

mic Attack & Exponential Decay/Re-

lease, Linear Attack & Exponential

Decay/Release, Exponential Attack & Decay/Release and Linear Attack & Decay/Release.

A(A(

)

))

)

Sets the attack time. When the envelope receives a high logic signal at the Gate input, the

output control signal from the envelope rises up to the maximum value, 64 units. The time

to get from 0 to 64 units is the attack time. If the logic Gate signal drops to zero before the

envelope has completed the attack stage, it will skip the decay and sustain stages and imme-

diately proceed with the release stage. The attack time is displayed in milliseconds or seconds

in the corresponding display box. Range: 0.5 ms to 45 s.

D(D(

)

))

)

Sets the decay time. After the envelope has completed the attack part, it will drop down to

the sustain level with the decay time. The decay is exponential. If the sustain level is 64, the

decay stage will not be needed, there is simply nothing to decay down to. If the logic Gate

signal drops to zero before the envelope has completed the decay stage, it will immediately

proceed with the release stage. The decay time is displayed in milliseconds or seconds in the

corresponding display box. Range: 0.5 ms to 45 s.
