Slope

engaged.
This parameter controls the slope of the EG. Kyra’s EGs
build on the basic ADSR envelope format to include a Slope
parameter. This parameter adjusts the rate of change
during the sustain period of an EG. Unlike the attack, decay
and release transitions, the slope is linear. The default
value of zero switches off the slope such that the EG out-
puts a constant sustain level so long as the note is held.
Positive values will cause the EG sustain output to gradual-
ly increase and negative values will cause the sustain out-
put to gradually decrease. Larger values, either positive or
negative, cause an increase in the rate of the slope. At
lower settings, the slope transition can be as long as 60
seconds.
Bass Delay
r
The Bass Delay feature is not available on EG1.
There’s no physical control, the parameters are available
on the EG2 and EG3 Bass Delay pages.
The purpose of EG Bass Delay is to delay the onset of a
modulating EG (which is typically EG2 or EG3) relative to
the onset of the amplifier EG, EG1. On certain Patches,
without Bass Delay, it is possible for very fast EG modula-
tion of parameters such as wavetable level or filter fre-
quency) to be skewed relative to the onset of the note. The
result of this is variation of the amount of modulation that
is heard up to and including not being able to hear it at all.
This occurs only at very low frequencies (typically those
