Decay
The time it takes the envelope to go

Sustain
The level at which the envelope re-
mains as long as a key is held down.

ENVELOPE GENERATORS
An envelope can be described as a “con-
tour” which can be used to shape the
sound in some way over time. Proteus FX
contains two different kinds of envelope
generators. One of the envelope genera-
tors, the Alternate Volume Envelope,
controls the volume of the primary or
secondary instrument and has 5 stages,
Attack, Hold, Decay, Sustain, and Release.
The other envelope, the Auxiliary Enve-
lope, can be routed to any realtime
control destination and is a general
purpose envelope. The Auxiliary Envelope
has 6 stages: Delay, Attack, Hold, Decay,
Sustain, and Release. The Envelope
parameters can be described as follows:
