The Amplifier
The amplifier is the last step in controlling the sound. It allows setting the general volume of the
Jupiter-8V.
The amplifier (VCA)
This module is very simple, it consists of:
VOLUME
: Knob to set the volume of the synthesizer
LFO MOD
: Slider to set the intensity level of the modulation by the LFO.
The volume module is directly affected by the envelope 2 (ADSR)
6.1.5
The ADSR Envelopes
The "ADSR" envelopes allow several parameters to be controlled with the help of the keyboard as a
trigger. You will find two envelopes on the JUPITER-8: one unit for the cut off frequency of the
filter (as well as the frequency of VCO2) and the other modulating the VCA amplitude.
The « ADSR » envelope consists of 4 different parameters: A(Attack time), D(Decay time), S(Sustain
voltage) an the R(Release time). When playing the keyboard, the envelopes will trigger and modify
the way to sound will be heard.
The envelope « ADSR » of the filter
ATTACK
: knob to set the attack time
DECAY
: knob to set the decay time
SUSTAIN
: knob to set the sustain time
RELEASE
: knob to set the release time
