ADSR 1&2
ADSR’s are used to play short sequences triggered by the
audio input. You set up a number of terms to describe the
current sequence, and a trigger level also known as
Threshold.
Attack
The Attack or rise time of the curve i.e. how long it takes to
go from minimum to maximum level.
Decay
Sets how long it takes the curve to fall back from maximum
to Sustain level.
Sustain
The amount of time that the ADSR will hold the Sustain
level.
Sustain level
The value that will be sent out during the Sustain period.
Release
The amount of time that it takes the ADSR to fall from
Sustain level to zero. Release time will take over when the
Sustain time has expired (depending on the trig mode
setting).
Mode
With the mode parameter parameter you can choose the
way the ADSR should respond to trigs. In general the
ADSR can only retrig if the signal falls below threshold and
comes back up.
Once
- Will run the ADSR to the end once, and
afterthat be ready for a new trig. In
“Once” mode the signal have to drop
below threshold after the ADSR finished
to be able to retrig.
Once-Retrig - Will run the ADSR to end once, but are
capable of retriggering during the ADSR
sequence.
Loop - Will keep running the ADSR sequence
for as long as the signal stays above
threshold.
Loop-Retrig - Will keep running the ADSR sequence
for as long as the signal stays above
threshold, but are capable of retriggering
MODIFIER
during the ADSR sequence.
Sustain - Will stay at Sustain level for as long as
the signal stays above threshold.
Sust-Retrig - Will stay at Sustain level for as long as
the signal stays above threshold, but is
capable of retriggering during the
ADSR sequence.
Threshold
When the input level exceeds this level, the ADSR is
triggered.
LFO 1&2
The LFO’s can be used for various purposes, for example
you can connect a balance parameter and create an extra
panner or modulate a filter to create an auto-wah effect.
Both LFO1 & 2 have two outputs, which means that you
can use the same LFO with different phase for different
purposes.
Speed
- The speed of the LFO also known as Rate.
Depth - The depth of the LFO also known as Width.
Tempo - Sets the LFO speeds relationship to the
tapped tempo (on the Tempo key). The
subdivisions available are: Ignored1/1, 1/2-
1/32, straight, dotted or triplets.(1/4 equals
BPM (beats per minute).
Curve - Select the curve that you would like on the
current LFO.Choose between: Square, Sine,
and Triangle.
Pulsewidth
Controls the division of the upper and lower parts of the
current curve, i.e. if Pulsewidth is set to 75%, the upper
half of the curve will be on for 75% of the time.
Square
Triangle
Sine
