Commands The option/command column shows specific options for this page.
add segm Adds a segment. Inserts a new segment in the envelope curve immediately
after the currently selected segment.
N.B.: a maximum of up to 10 segments is permitted.
del segm Cancels the segment selected. N.B.: The Key Off Envelope must have at least
one segment (corresponding to Attack), which cannot be cancelled.
zoom in ..Enlarges the field of vision of the envelope up to 4 times.
zoom out Reduces the field of vision of the envelope; it also cancels a zoom in. Reduces
the envelope up to three times its standard size.
Parameters Tap
ENTER
to access the three parameters displayed under the Key Off Envelope curve. Edit
the selected parameter with
DIAL
(“Time” and “Level” also with the
NUMERIC KEYPAD
).
segment One of the envelope segments (1 - 10), whose end point is selected.
time Duration of the Segment. The maximum segment time is approximately 21 seconds.
Value range: 0 ... 127.
level Sound level of the selected segment at its terminal point. The maximum level
corresponds to the volume programmed in the Volume editor N.B.: the level at the terminal
point of the Key Off Envelope is always zero.
Value range: 0 ... 127.
Detailed procedure Follow these steps to access and modify the parameters:
1. Tap
ENTER
to select one of the parameters “Segment”, “Time”, “Level”.
2. Rotate the
DIAL
to select a segment or to modify its duration or level. You can
enter a “Time” and “Level” value on the
NUMERIC KEYPAD
.
3. Press
ENTER
to select the next parameter. After “Level” you will return to
“Segment”.
4. Select “Add segm.” to add a new segment after the selected segment. Select
“Del. segm.” to cancel the selected segment.
Page 4: Amplitude Envelope Tracking
Options These three options permit you to divide the Tracking “curve” into different segments; in
order to permit a more or less refined programming of the Tracking across the keyboard.
1 segm 1 segment. The Tracking is essential and provides a constant variation of the
completion velocity of the envelope across the keyboard. The “Key” parameter cannot be
modified.
3 segm 3 segments. The Tracking consists of 3 segments which create a curve with
different variations across the keyboard.
6 segm 6 segments. The Tracking curve is greatly divided, allowing a complex program-
ming of the envelope completion velocity variations across the keyboard.
Parameters The three parameters displayed across the bottom parts of the Tracking curve can be
accessed by tapping repeatedly on
ENTER
. The selected parameter can be modified with the
DIAL
(the “Key” and “Level” parameters also with the
NUMERIC KEYPAD
).
point One of the extreme ends of a segment. Rotation of the
DIAL
selects one of the points
of the Tracking curve (1, 2, or 1, 2, 3, 4, or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).
key Determines the keyboard position for the point in edit. The extreme points (A#0, C8)
cannot be modified.
level The envelope completion velocity offset (Key On and Key Off). Positive values
increase the completion velocity, negative values slow it down. 0 corresponds to the
“standard” duration of the segments programmed in the previous pages.
Value range: -63 … 0…+63.
