• Loop Forward: The envelope runs to the Sustain point and begins to repeat the section
between the Loop point and Sustain point periodically—always in a forward direction.
• Loop Backward: The envelope runs to the Sustain point and begins to repeat the section
between the Sustain point and Loop start point periodically—always in a backward
direction.
• Loop Alternate: The envelope runs to the Sustain point and returns to the Loop point
and back to the Sustain point periodically, alternating in both a backward and forward
direction.
• Scan via CtrlB: The timeline position within the envelope is disconnected from normal,
real-time operation, enabling you to manually scan the overall time range with the MIDI
controller assigned to CtrlB (in the MIDI Controller Assign section).
Tip: It is also possible to drag the red time position marker.
Note: If one of the three loop modes is selected, and the Loop point is positioned before
the Sustain point, the loop remains active until the key is released. Following key release,
the envelope then continues beyond the Sustain point, as usual. If the Loop point is
positioned after the Sustain point, the loop begins as soon as the key is released, and
cycles continuously until the complete voice has finished the amplitude envelope release
phase.
Record Morph Envelopes in Logic Pro Sculpture
This section outlines the steps needed to record a Morph Envelope.
Choose a record trigger mode in the Sculpture Morph Envelope
• In Logic Pro, click the Trigger mode pop-up menu to the right of the Rbutton, then
choose one of the following trigger modes to start recording when R(ecord) Enable is
turned on:
• NoteOn: Recording starts when a note is played.
• Note + Move Morph Point: Recording starts when MIDI control change messages (as
assigned in the Morph X and Y parameters of the MIDI Controller Assign section)
arrive while a note is held.
• Note + Sustain Pedal: Recording starts when the sustain pedal is depressed while a
note is held.
Record a Morph Envelope in Sculpture
1. In Logic Pro, choose a trigger mode if you don’t want to use the Morph Pad.
Skip this step if using the Morph Pad.
2. Click the R(ecord) Enable button to arm the morph envelope record function.
3. Play a note on your MIDI keyboard, and do either of the following:
• Drag the silver ball in the Morph Pad.
• Move an external controller (see Assign Logic Pro Sculpture MIDI controllers).
