Both ENV 2 and ENV 3 can also be used simultaneously as sources in the router. The
envelope time parameters can be used as modulation targets in the router.
ES2 Envelope2 and 3 parameters
• Attack slider: Define the time required for the level of a note to rise from an amplitude of
zero to the set amplitude. The Attack time sliders of ENV 2 and ENV 3 are divided into
two halves.
• The lower half defines the attack time when the keys are struck hard, at maximum
velocity. The upper half defines the attack time at minimum velocity.
Drag the area between the two slider halves to move both simultaneously. If this area
is too small to drag, drag an unused portion of the slider vertically.
• Decay slider: Set the time it takes for the level of a held note to fall to the sustain level,
after the attack phase has completed.
• If the Sustain level parameter is set to its maximum value, the Decay parameter has
no effect.
• When the Sustain level is set to its minimum value, the Decay parameter defines the
duration or fade-out time of the note.
• Sustain/Sustain Time sliders: Set the sustain level and the sustain time. See Use
Envelope2 and 3 sustain controls inLogic Pro ES2.
• Release Time slider: Define the time required for the sustain level to fall to zero, after
the key is released.
• Velocity Sensitivity slider: Determine the velocity sensitivity of the entire envelope. If
set to maximum, the envelope outputs its maximum level only when the keys are struck
at maximum velocity. Softer velocities result in a corresponding change to the envelope
levels, with a 50% velocity resulting in half-levels for each envelope-level parameter.

When the Sustain Time (rise) slider is set to its center value, the Sustain (S) Level slider
behaves like the sustain parameter of a standard synthesizer ADSR envelope.
In this position, the Sustain (Level) slider defines the level that is sustained while the key
remains depressed, following completion of the Attack time and Decay time phases.
The Sustain Time slider defines the time it takes for the level to rise from the Sustain level
back to its maximum level—or to fall to zero:
