Envelope Zoom Snapshots
Envelope zoom snapshots save the current state of the graphical envelope editor. For
example, by saving two envelope zoom snapshots, one for the beginning and one for
the end of the envelope, you can conveniently switch between editing the attack and
release of the envelope.
Saving and Loading Envelope Zoom Snapshots
To the right of the scroll bar you find three numbered buttons which allow you to save
and load envelope zoom snapshots for the current envelope editor (Amp, Filter, Pitch,
or User). When saving an envelope zoom snapshot, it remembers the zoom factor and
scroll position of the graphical envelope editor. The zoom factor and scroll position will
be restored when loading the envelope zoom snapshot.
• To save the current state of the graphical envelope editor, [Shift]-click one of the
numbered buttons to the right of the scroll bar.
• To load a previously saved envelope zoom snapshot, click the corresponding
button. The button color changes to green indicating the snapshot is active.
Zooming or scrolling with the graphical envelope editor deactivates the Envelope
Zoom Snapshot. The button indicates this by turning gray.
Editing the Envelope
Each multisegment envelope has up to 128 nodes with the Time, Level and Curve
parameters. The nodes and their parameters specify the overall shape of the
envelope. You can edit one or multiple nodes using the graphical envelope editor or
by typing in values. Before you can edit nodes, you must select them.
