Base
The Base section allows you to form the basic shape of your sound.
RANGE: Hereby the pitch of the basic sound is controlled in the range from -2 to +4
octaves.
ATTACK: The Attack slider determines the length of time it takes for the amplitude
envelope to reach the full volume.
HOLD: The Hold slider determines the length of time the amplitude envelope is held at the
maximum volume. Note that the maximum value is limited to 100ms (0.1 second) as its a
sound shaping parameter for percussive sounds and not intended to program pad sounds.
DECAY: The Decay slider determines the length of time that the amplitude envelope takes
to return to zero. After the hold time has elapsed the amplitude fades out during the Decay
time.
SOUND: The Sound parameter lets you select a basic harmonic spectrum. Below the dial
you can select one of three spectrums:
- P is the classic Element P spectrum (the only spectrum available in the 2002 version)
- A alternative set A, sine to triangle spectrum
- B alternative set B, another new spectrum
