Selecting Nodes
• Select a node by clicking the node in the graphical editor. Selected nodes turn
light blue in color. The focused node is indicated by an orange frame color. The
focused node displays its parameters in the text fields to the left of the graphical
envelope editor.
• With multiple nodes selected, use the Node pop-up menu above the text fields to
set the focus to a different node without losing the current selection.
• [Shift]-click on a node to add it to the selection. Selected nodes will be edited
together.
• In addition, you can select multiple nodes by drawing a rectangle with the mouse
around the nodes.
• With a single node selected, use the left or right arrow key to select the next or
previous node. In a multiselection, the focused node will change instead and the
previous or next node within the multiselection will be focused.
• Click in empty space in the background of the envelope to cancel the current
selection.
Adjusting the Time Parameter
The Time parameter specifies the duration between two nodes. The change in level
from the selected to the following node will be carried out in the duration set by the
Time parameter (0
ms – 30.000 s). Depending on the Sync mode, the Time parameter
is displayed in milliseconds and seconds, or fractions of beats (when Sync is
activated).
To adjust the Time parameter with the graphical envelope editor, proceed as follows:
• In the graphical envelope editor, select the nodes and drag them left or right to
decrease or to increase the times.
• For a higher resolution, hold [Shift] while moving the nodes.
• Hold [Ctrl]/[Command] while dragging to limit the movement to the time-axis
(horizontal positioning only).
To set the Time parameter by entering values with the keyboard, proceed as follows:
• In the graphical envelope editor, select the nodes you want to edit. Use the Env
Node pop-up menu to change the focus if necessary. Enter a value in the Time text
field to the left of the graphical envelope editor, and press [Enter].
Adjusting the Level Parameter
The Level parameter specifies the amplitude of the envelope at the position set by the
Time parameter. The Amp and Filter envelopes are unipolar. Therefore, the value
range for the level is 0
% to +100 % (positive values only). The Pitch and User
envelopes are bipolar, the value range for the level is from -100
% to +100 %
(negative and positive values) for these envelopes.
Ö You can change the polarity of the envelopes in the modulation matrix, for instance, to
map the range of the Amplifier Envelope (unipolar) to Pan (bipolar). However, the
envelopes always display their values with their default polarity.
To adjust the Level parameter with the graphical envelope editor, proceed as follows:
• In the graphical envelope editor, select the nodes and drag them up or down to
decrease or increase the levels.
• Hold [Alt]/[Option] while dragging to limit the movement to the level-axis (vertical
positioning only).
• For a higher resolution, hold [Shift] while moving the nodes.
