4.13. Envelopes
Envelopes are adjustable modulators that shape the voltage over time. MatrixBrute has two
4-stage, ADSR (Attack Decay Sustain Release) envelopes, plus a third one (ENV 3) which
adds a Delay phase before the ADSR (this is all explained below). Each envelope has a "gate"
LED that show when a gate is receive and will fade out to show when the release stage is
still active.
You can add assignments to the envelopes in the Matrix, but by default:
• ENV 1 (VCF) is routed to the VCF's Master Cutoff frequency, so you can shape the
overall filter sweep;
• ENV 2 (VCA) (voltage-controlled amplifier) controls the overall volume level of the
sound;
• ENV 3 is freely assignable in the Matrix.
In all three envelopes:
