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 Filter open at
the previously selected Sustain level. This is useful if you want to trigger a long sound
by simply tapping a key.

Note: If the filter and VCA release are both at 32 (also see ANALOG PROCESSING 12 ), a key will
sustain at the sustain level even after you take your fingers off the keys. This is like the HOLD
function found on standard synthesizers. The sound will continue to sustain unless you play
more notes that there are available channels, in which case previously assigned channels will
be assigned to newly played notes.
Module: ANALOG PROCESSING 15
Function: LFO SETUP
(RATE, DELAY, VARIATION )
This function sets three LFO parameters (initial rate, delay before onset of LFO modulation, and
LFO variation).
Application: After pressing a key(s), LFO delay delays the onset of vibrato by an adjustable amount. This
simulates an effect often used by string players, where the vibrato is brought in only after the initial note
pitch has been clearly established.
Application: LFO variation adds a randomized quality to ensemble sounds by providing slightly different
vibrato rates for each key being held down. This can make orchestral Voices sound truly polyphonic.
1. Activate
ANALOG PROCESSING 15 . The display will say:
...where X is a numeral.
2. Select the desired parameter for adjustment with the cursor buttons, then use the data slider to
change the parameter value. These are the available parameters:
LFO Rate: Varies from 1 to 120; higher values give a faster modulation rate.
LFO Delay: Sets the amount of time between hilling a key and the onset of modulation. Range is
from 00 to 99, with higher values giving longer delays.
LFO Variation: In addition to having true, one-LFO-per-Voice polyphonic modulation, Emax also has
a great feature called variation. With 00 variation, each key will have the same vibrato
rate. Increasing variation (to a maximum of 15) alters the LFO rate every time you hit
a key; the higher the number, the greater the variation in LFO frequency. For effects
such as ensemble playing, the variation feature is invaluable as it creates the illusion
of multiple players, each having their own vibrato rate.
