Envelope Trigger Selections

Sequencer or Key

The envelopes will be triggered by either the
sequencer or the keyboard. When triggered by the
sequencer, the gates are on for half the step time.
Simply adjust the envelope parameters (ADSR) for the
desired effect.

Sequencer Only

The envelopes will be triggered by the sequencer only.

Keyboard Only

The envelopes will be triggered by the keyboard only.

Key, Resets Seq

The envelopes will be triggered by the keyboard, and
the sequencer will be reset on every key (if it is
running). The sequencer will not trigger the envelopes.

Key, Gates Seq

Gated mode – the envelopes will be triggered by the
sequencer when a key is held; in other words the
keyboard will gate the sequencer. AUTO

KeyGates Seq Rst

Gated mode, reset – same as Gated mode, except
every time a key is hit, the sequencer is reset to step
1. AUTO

Ext Audio Input

The envelopes are gated by the Left external audio
input signal level, in other words, when the signal gets
above a fixed threshold, the envelopes start. The
envelopes then go into the release phase when the
signal level drops below a second fixed threshold.

ExtIn, ResetsSeq

Same as external in, but also resets the sequencer to
step 1 if it is running.

ExtIn, Gates Seq

External In signal will gate the sequencer. AUTO

ExtIn GateSeqRst

External In signal will gate the sequencer, and also
resets the sequencer to step 1 on each new gate.
