ESI Operation Manual
4. Select whether Loop in Release on line three is on or off. Here
are your choices:
• Off: Lifting your finger off a key initiates the release phase of the
VCA envelope. If Loop in Release is off, the loop will not continue
during the release phase. The portion of the sample after the loop
will be played during release. The signal may cut off abruptly after
you remove your fingers from the keys if the sample has been
truncated after the loop.
• On: With Loop in Release on, the loop will keep playing—even after
you lift your finger off the key—for the duration of the VCA release.
5. Select page two by pressing the right cursor button. The second
page displays the following parameters:
SETUP
Beep: off
Zero X Thresh: -54dB
• Beep: when on, the ESI gives an audible indication when time
intensive digital processing operations are finished.
• Zero X Threshold: Use the Data Entry Control or INC/DEC buttons
to select the zero crossing threshold. A setting of -96 dB will be the
most sensitive; a setting of -30 dB will be the least sensitive. The
selected zero crossing threshold is used in the auto-truncate function
or whenever you manually select a zero crossing using the left/right
cursor keys. If auto truncate does not seem to be working well, try
adjusting the zero crossing threshold.
6. Press ENTER to exit the submodule. The ESI will return to the
Module Identifier.
