2. Select the desired parameter for adjustment with the cursor buttons, then use the data
slider to change the parameter value. Refer to the diagram as you read the following
descriptions of the five envelope parameters.
■
A (Attack): Varies the VCA envelope attack time from 01 to 32 (higher values increase
the attack time).
■
H (Hold): Sets the duration of the peak. If a key is held down longer than the hold
duration, the decay phase will begin. If a key is released during the hold duration, the
release phase will begin.
■
D (Decay): Varies the initial decay time from 01 to 32 (higher values increase the initial
decay time). 32 gives “infinite decay” (envelope stays at maximum amplitude for as long
as you hold down keys).
■
S (Sustain): Varies the envelope sustain level from 01 to 32 (higher values give higher
sustain levels).
■
R (Release): Varies the release time from 01 to 32 (higher values increase the release
time). A setting of 32 inhibits the release phase of the envelope, thus keeping the VCA
open at the previously selected Sustain level. This is useful if you want to trigger a long
sound by simply tapping a key.
3. After making your selections, press ENTER to return to the module identifier.
The Envelope Generators are used to shape the sound over the course of the note.
