The CronoX 3's envelope parameters are set using an ADSFR envelope
which consists of controls for Attack, Decay, Sustain, Fade and Release.
The Attack slider setting determines the length of time (in seconds) it takes
for the envelope parameter to reach the full envelope depth. For example, if
the Attack slider is set to 0.100 seconds, the envelope parameter will move
from zero to full value within 100 milliseconds. Range: 0.001 seconds...10
seconds.
The Decay slider setting determines the length of time (in seconds) that the
envelope parameter takes to move from the Attack peak level to the
Sustain level. Range: 0.001 seconds...10 seconds.
The Sustain slider setting determines the envelope parameter after the
initial Attack/Decay phase has been completed. Range: 0.000...1.000.
The Fade slider is used to set the rate at which the envelope parameter
moves from the Sustain level to either 0 (for negative Fade values) or full
range (for positive Fade values). A Fade setting of 0 means that the
envelope parameter remains at the Sustain level until the key is released.
Range: -10...10.
The Release slider is used to set the length of time (in seconds) that the
envelope parameter takes to move from the current level to 0 after the key
is released. Range: 0.004 seconds...10 seconds.
The setting of the Lin/Log buttons determines the way that the envelope
moves from one value to the next. In the case of Lin (“Linear”), the
envelope follows a straight line from one value to the next. In the case of
Log (“Logarithmic”), the envelope moves from one value to the next using
logarithmic interpolation. In general, a logarithmic envelope will sound more
natural, particularly for note releases.
