8M decoys

For a note

OFF. the
R-8M decays
the
sound
level at the
rate determined by
Hold 1
value,
after sounding the
note. (This
function
does not
affect the
instruments having a
reverse
decay typo of
sound.)
It the
transmitting
controller can send
continuously changing Hold 1
value,
the
R

8M
can also
continuously
vary sound decay
rate.
