6.2.2 The envelope generator.
The envelope generator, connected to the amplifier, is used to “sculpt” the form of a sound during
a cycle, which begins when we press a note on the keyboard, and ends when we release.
the envelope module
The most common envelope modules use 4 settings that we can vary:
•
The Attack is the time that the sound will take to reach its maximum volume once
the key has been pressed on the keyboard.
•
The Decay is the time that the sound will take to decline after the key is played.
•
The Sustain is the maximum level of volume that the sound will reach when a key is
pressed.
•
The Release is the decline time after the key has been released.
