Note:
Envelope parameters are hard to describe in words. It's best to simply try out
which envelope parameters affect which modulation characteristics. Try
experimenting with the volume envelope EG 3 in conjunction with a wave file with
a sample loop such as our demo file SAWTOOTH.WAV. Don't forget to
activate the EG3 button in the OUTAMP section first.
Keyb. Table determines which keyboard table will control the attack and delay
times of the envelope. This can be used to set shorter attack and delay times for
higher frequencies than for lower ones. No keyboard table is applied in the off
position.
Start level determines the basic level of the envelope at the start of the attack
phase.

The WAMI BOX has two independent keyboard tables. A keyboard table
generates a modulation signal based on a characteristic curve which depends on
the keyboard position of the played key. One possible application of this is the
filter tracking performed by other synthesizers, which involves changing the cutoff
frequency in dependence to the played note. In other words, the higher the pitch
at which a sample is played, the higher its cutoff frequency.
This characteristic corresponds to that of some natural instruments which sound
bright at high pitches and dull at lower pitches. Needless to say, you can also
reverse this characteristic due to the flexible adjustment of the characteristic
curve. It's possible to achieve especially unusual effects by using a keyboard table
to manipulate the pitch of a sample.
