Key Parameters
Each preset offers the four most pertinent parameters unique to that preset. Our
sound designers have taken the greatest care to assign parameters that will enrich
and give depth to the sound of each preset. In this way, only the parameters that are
the most beneficial when modifying/tweaking a given sound are available, facilitating
the production process.
To know which 4 parameters have been selected for each preset, one must simply
point the mouse over a Key Parameter knob and an information block will appear
specifying the parameter name.

FX MIX (Effects Mix)
Analog Factory S.E. also carries a simple yet efficient effects section. The two effects,
Chorus and Delay, are automatically synchronized to the tempo of a piece in the
user’s sequencer. If none the less, the user wishes to access more advanced effets,
they are available in most sequencer programs (Cubase, Garage Band, Pro Tools, to
name just a few).
FX MIX
Chorus
: the Chorus effect permits one to double and detune the sound in
order to make it deeper and richer. The Chorus MIX controls the
amount of Chorus applied to the original sound, making it more wet
or dry.
Delay
: the Delay carries an echo effect (repetition of the sound) that gives
space to the tone. The speed of these repetitions is automatically
synchronized to MIDI tempo (the tempo of a song in the host
sequencer). The user simply has to adjust the Delay MIX knob to
control the quantity of the effect.
3.4.7
ADSR faders
The “ADSR” envelope is composed of four successive sequential periods in the life of a
note: Attack time, Decay time, Sustain time, and the Release time.
ATTACK
: begins when a note is activated. The Attack time may be short
and dry (as in percussion) or long and ascending (as with a
pad sound)
