Envelope Matrix

Envelopes are routed to modulation destinations using the Octopus'

Envelope Matrix module which is located on the middle-right of the

instrument's front panel.

The Envelope Matrix module is similar to the Oscillator Matrix module

described above, so that if you know how that module works you should

have no trouble with the Envelope Matrix module. Note that the Envelope

Matrix module works in conjunction with the Envelope Editor module so it's

important that you are familiar with both modules in order to get the most

out of the Envelope Matrix module.

The Octopus contains 32 envelopes arranged in 4 banks of 8 slots. At any

time, one or more of these envelopes acts as a modulation source. The

Envelope Editor displays the currently selected envelope.

The Envelope Matrix contains an array of nodes connecting Envelopes to

various destinations within the synthesizer. The envelopes are displayed as

a set of vertical slots on the left side of the module. Envelope destinations

are displayed horizontally across the bottom of the matrix. Note that the

generic envelope destination is set in the Envelope Editor module (see

above for more information about the Envelope Editor module), while the

actual destination is set in the Envelope Matrix module. 11 destinations are

available. These are: Oscillator 1 to Oscillator 8, Filter 1 and Filter 2, and

the Sampler.
