This example illustrates bypassing stages to create new envelope functionality.

Notice that Decay2 Level and Release2 Level are ignored. This is because Attack
always rises to the maximum Output Level – set by the

LEVEL

parameter in the

LEVEL

page – at which time the envelope decays (via Decay2 Time) to the next stage

level Sustain.
