ENVELOPES SECTION
This section contains all the knobs & buttons associated with the Envelopes. The Envelopes are used to shape a sound over time.
Env 1 ( the Amplifier Envelope ) is assigned to the Amplifier & controls the Volume of the Program. It is used to decide how quickly
the sound starts when you play a note & how it sustains & dies away. Similarly Env 2 & Env 3 can be used to create tonal changes
over time by modulating the Filter’s Cutoff Frequency and/or Resonance in a similar fashion or can be used to create sweeping
pitch shifts, Pulse Width Modulation, Sync & Osc Mix sweeps.
ENV 1 ( AMP ) - Button
ENV 2 - Button
ENV 3 - Button
These buttons select which Envelope the Envelope knobs are going to adjust.
Attack - Knob
This knob sets how quickly the Envelope rises to its maximum level when a note is struck. Fully anticlockwise, this is instantaneous
increasing exponentially to 20 seconds fully clockwise. To shorten Attack times turn this knob anticlockwise & to lengthen Attack
times turn this knob clockwise. The range of this parameter is 000 to 127. This parameter is memorised with a Program.
Decay - Knob
This knob sets how quickly the Envelope drops off to the Sustain level once the Maximum level has been reached by the Attack
time. Fully anticlockwise this is instantaneous increasing exponentially to 20 second fully clockwise. To shorten Decay times turn
this knob anticlockwise & to lengthen Decay times turn this knob clockwise. The range of this parameter is 000 to 127. This param-
eter is memorised with a Program.
Sustain - Knob
This knob sets the level at which the Envelope remains at after the Decay phase until the note is released. Fully anticlockwise the
Envelope will decay all the way to zero without being interrupted. As the knob is moved clockwise, the level at which the Decay is
halted increases until full clockwise there is no Decay at all. The range of this parameter is 000 to 127. This parameter is memo-
rised with a Program.
Release - Knob
This knob sets how quickly the Envelope drops from the Sustain level to zero once the note has been released. Fully anticlockwise
this is instantaneous increasing exponentially to 20 seconds fully clockwise. To shorten Release times turn this knob anticlockwise
& to lengthen Release times turn this knob clockwise. The range of this parameter is 000 to 127. This parameter is memorised with
a Program.
Menu - Button
When this button is pressed a series of pages is available on the display containing parameters relevant to this section.
In the Envelope section there are 4 pages available. These are selected using the Page Up & Page Down buttons to the left of the
display.
There are a maximum of 2 parameters displayed on any page. One for each line on the display. The “Fast Data” Knobs on the right
of the display are used to alter these parameter’s values.
