PEDAL ATTACK & RELEASE ENVELOPE
From the screen shown on the previous page, press the DIRECTION “ q ” button.
The box to the right of “ENVELOPE” should be highlighted.
This Parameter allows you to adjust the rate of Attack (when a pedal is depressed) and Release (when the
pedal is released). The data chart below shows the options you may select.
PEDAL ATTACK & RELEASE ENVELOPE
Parameter Description
Con This is the envelope of the key-click(s) generated with the Virtual Multi-Contacts.
1 ~ 15 This is the rate of Attack without the Virtual Multi-Contacts. A higher value will
result in a slower Attack (the speed at the which the Drawbar registration sounds
when a pedal is depressed).
R1 ~ R15 This Parameter changes the Release rate. The Attack rate is that provided by the
Virtual Multi-Contacts. This means that the onset of the tone will be
instantaneous while the Release rate is regulated by the numerical setting.
AR1 ~ AR15 This Parameter disables the Virtual Multi-Contacts and allows you to change both
the Attack and Release rate. At higher numerical settings the Attack and Release
will be slow, similar to that of a pipe organ.
Turn the VALUE knob to make your selection.
NOTE: This Parameter is NOT available on the Transistor or Pipe Organ Types.
NOTE: In addition to the above Parameters, the PEDAL Part can also receive Pedal Sustain , a popular
effect for organ bass which adds a smooth decay reminiscent of a string bass. This feature is described in
the
COMBINATIONS / PATCHES / BUNDLES / FAVORITES chapter of this Guide.
