6.3.3. Repeat
A special feature of the envelope to simulate claps and other sounds with a fuzzy/rattling attack.
If the repeat count is set to a value greater than zero, the envelope is in repeat mode.
The slow onset of the attack stage is replaced by the repeat stage in which the envelope is
retriggered rapidly. The attack parameter controls the duration of the complete repeat phase.
6.4. Transient generator
The transient generator is used to shape the beginning of a sound. Since the perception of sounds is
heavily influenced by their first few milliseconds, this feature is useful to spice up or vary the sound
character of an instrument.
There are different modes the transient generator uses to shape the attack
6.4.1. Snappy mode
The snappy mode is the first entry in the selection list, shown in the menu as 'Snp'
To make the attack of the sound more 'snappy' an additional pitch envelope is used.
•
The volume parameter controls the modulation depth
•
The frequency parameter controls the decay time
The envelope is quite fast and modulates the pitch of the oscillators resulting in a nice, controllable
snap or click sound.
