towards the respective destination. The fade time is in the range 16
milliseconds to 10 seconds.
Release
The Release dial is used to set the time it takes the envelope to move from
the current level to 0 after the key is released (the Note ends). Range: 4
milliseconds to 15 seconds.
Note: For the Oscillator-Envelopes the maximum setting is “oo” (infinite),
which means that the Oscillator-Envelope does not affect the Release and
that the Release is determined by the Main Envelope (the overall Volume
envelope for the whole patch).
Phase Shape
Next to each dial which controls a Time (that is Attack, Decay, Fade and
Release) there is a Phase Shape control. It determines how the respective
phase is working. If it is a straight line, then the phase is working in a Linear
manner; changing it results in a either logarithmic or reverse logarithmic
shape. This has quite some effect, to try it we recommend you to use a
sound with a not too long volume release and play with the shape of the
release phase while listening to the results.
Pit Scale (Pitch Scaling)
This kind of envelope scaling allows to change all Envelope times
according to the pitch (the note being played), the reference key is the
middle C.
When turning this dial clockwise the envelope times get longer with higher
notes while turning it counter-clockwise shortens the envelope times with
higher notes. The shortening with higher notes is a phenomenon found on
many acoustic instruments.
Pitch scaling is not available with Synced Envelopes (see page 35).
Vel Scale (Velocity Scaling)
This kind of envelope scaling allows to change the Attack time according to
the key being played, the reference key is the middle C.
When turning this dial clockwise the Attack get longer with harder played
notes while turning it counter-clockwise shortens the Attack times with
higher velocity.
Velocity scaling is not available with Synced Envelopes (see page 35).
