Random

Applies a random detune whenever a new note is triggered. Use this if you feel the tuning
of your synth is too ‘tight’ when using Silent Way and you hanker for the sloppy tuning of
analogue synths back in the good old days.

LFO Depth/Speed

Applies a low-frequency modulation to the output pitch. This is intended as a convenient
means to achieve a simple vibrato effect - for more complex pitch modulation, you can of
course process the pitch CV in hardware in your modular system.

Envelopes

The Voice Controller includes three identical multi-stage envelope generators.

The shapes of the envelopes are shown graphically down the
centre of the plug-in GUI.

There are two views on the envelope generator controls - a sim-
ple view which presents a traditional ‘ADSR’ view on all three
envelopes at once, and a complex view which offers all the pos-
sible controls on each
envelope. Select the view
by pressing one of the
four buttons above the envelope controls.

Simple Env Controls

Using the simple controls lets you set up a
traditional ADSR (Attack-Decay-Sustain-
Release) envelope shape.

The times are calibrated in seconds. For
very fast times, remember that holding
Shift while dragging the mouse increases
the resolution of the changes.
