Roland G-800 - Tone Change; Tone Edit (Source switch)

G-800 Reference Manual
E Env Decay [-64 ~+63]
This parameter adjusts the time over which the sound will fall from the highest point of the
attack down to the sustain level.
Note: Percussive sounds usually have a sustain level of “0”. Piano and guitar sounds are in this
category. Holding the keys for a long time will thus have little effect on the duration of the notes
your are playing.
m Env Release [-64~+63]
This parameter adjusts the time over which the sound will decay after the note is released until
it is no longer heard. The cutoff frequency will also fall according to this setting.
