GRAIN SAMPLE MANIPULATOR771
But often a combination of Decay and Sustain is used to generate envelopes that rise up to the Gain level, then grad-
ually decreases to finally land to rest on a level somewhere in-between zero and the Gain level. Note that Sustain rep-
resents a level, whereas the other envelope parameters represent times.
R(elease)
The Release parameter works just like the Decay parameter, except it determines the time it takes for the volume to
drop back to zero after you release the key.
Gain
D Set the desired maximum level for the Amplifier with the Gain knob.
This is the maximum level the envelope will reach after the Attack stage is completed (see above).
q If you want to create a tremolo effect, assign “Gain” as Destination and an LFO as Source in the Modulation
Bus section, see “The Modulation Bus section”.
Vel
D If you want the Gain level to be controlled from keyboard velocity, turn up the Vel knob.
Pan
D Set the panning of the output signal from the Amplifier in the stereo panorama.
q Since Pan works individually per voice, you can assign e.g. Keyboard Velocity or an Envelope in the Modula-
tion Bus to control the Pan effect, see “The Modulation Bus section”.
The Envelopes section
The Envelopes section features four separate polyphonic (one per voice) general purpose envelope generators, that
can be assigned to control selectable parameter(s) in the Modulation Bus section. The first two envelopes (Envelope
1 and Envelope 2) are also hardwired to the Motion and Filter Frequency destinations respectively.
The Envelopes are extremely flexible, and you can draw your own custom modulation shapes by clicking and drawing
in the display area. There are also a number of preset shapes that you can use as starting points (or use as is). If you
use Loop mode, you could turn the envelope into a kind of LFO.
See “The Modulation Bus section” for details on how to assign the Envelopes to the desired destination(s).
Envelope 1, 2, 3 and 4
D Click one of the Envelope 1, 2, 3 or 4 buttons to select which envelope to edit:
Envelope 1 and Envelope 2 are also hardwired to the Motion and Filter Frequency destinations respectively.
