Amplitude and Brightness

CONTOUR (cont’d)

With 

SUSTAIN

 set to Full clockwise, 

SUSTAIN

 is 

maximum, but with no audible 

DECAY

, as the 

circuit remains at the Maximum level.  

Figure 53

 is 

a 3 Stage function, operating as an 

ASR

, or 

Attack 

Sustain Release

 envelope.  Many older electronic 

organs utilized this type of Amplitude control.

With 

SUSTAIN

 settings anywhere between 

Minimum and Maximum, the 

CONTOUR

 generates 

a 4-Stage function that, when used to drive the 

DYNAMICS

 circuit, produces the classic 

“ADSR,”

 or 

Attack, Decay, Sustain Release

 Amplitude 

Envelope, as popularized by the East Coast 

Synthesis technology 

(Figure 54).

Vari-Response

 shapes these rates of change (i.e. 

ONSET/ DECAY

) to be Linear, Exponential, and 

everything inbetween.  With 

EXPO

 response, the 

rate of change INCREASES as the voltage 

INCREASES. With a 

LINEAR

 response, there is no 

change in rate when the voltage is changing .  The 

Vari-Response

 control may be used to increase or 

decrease the overall time or speed of the 

CONTOUR

.  Setting 

Vari-Response

 more 

Clockwise in order to be more Exponential 

increases the rate, causing the 0-COAST to sound 

more percussive.  Setting it to be more LINEAR 

decreases the rate, causing the 0-COAST to fade in 

and out of existence.  

Experiment with different

 ONSET 

and

 DECAY

 

settings, while leaving 

SUSTAIN

 set to about 11 

o’clock, and Vari-Response set to 2 o’clock.  This 

may help you understand what 

ONSET

 and 

DECAY

 

are doing.  Now, set 

ONSET

 to 9 o’ clock, and 

DECAY

 to 3 o’ Clock, while experimenting with 

different 

SUSTAIN

 settings.  Finally, experiment 

with different 

Vari-Response 

settings using  the 

Panel Controls to change the shape and rate of the 

CONTOUR

.

 Once the Gate is received at the CONTOUR GATE 

Input, the FUNCTION Rises at a Rate and Shape set by the ONSET and VARI-RESPONSE Panel Controls 

and increases until it hits its maximum value of 8V.  Next, the SUSTAIN circuits alter the Function 

according to the SUSTAIN Panel Control.  Finally, the Function “Releases” back to 0V at a Rate and 

Slope determined by the DECAY and Vari-Response Panel Controls.
