Audio Damage Axon - Manual (Page 11)

Pitch
The PITCH control sets the note that the voice plays. Notes are indicated with the usual names of “A” through
“G” followed by a single digit indicating the octave. C4 is middle C. Sharps are indicated by a # symbol
following the note name
1 . Click and drag up/down to change the pitch of the voice.
The PITCH control also sets the pitch of the MIDI note transmitted by Axon when the voice is triggered.
Amplitude Envelope Generator
The amplitude envelope generator, labeled AMP EG, controls the overall “shape” of the sound—that is, its
loudness over the duration of the note. Since Axon’s voices are intended for creating percussive sounds, the
AMP EG is fairly simple. It has a brief attack phase in which it jumps from silence to a peak, followed by a
release phase in which it fades back to silence. You can control the duration of both phases as well as their
curvature. The following diagram shows how to change the AMP EG by clicking and dragging on the control:
