R (Release) is the fade phase of an envelope after the release of the key. A good
example for this is a crash cymbal, which decays for a fixed time regardless of
the length of the attack.
Relationship between level and time parameters
The Rate parameters of the envelopes are scaled approximately exponentially. In
other words, a small value (approx. < 60) represents only a few fractions of a
second, whereas a value near the maximum is already several minutes.
