Envelope Bank Select/Envelope Select
Clicking on the Envelope Bank control selects one of the four envelope
banks. Clicking on one of the Envelope Selector controls selects the
envelope. The currently selected bank and envelope are highlighted.
Envelope Editor Menu
The Envelope Editor popup menu is used for adding and removing
envelopes from the Matrix, as well as editing envelopes, and particularly for
interchanging envelope settings between different Envelopes. The menu is
accessed by clicking on the V symbol beside the Envelope Matrix label. The
popup menu contains ten items: Add Envelope, Delete Envelope, Move Up,
Move Down, Copy View, Paste View, Reset View, Clone Envelope, Load
Envelope and Save Envelope.
Envelopes are added and removed from the instrument using the Add
Envelope/Delete Envelope menu items. When an envelope is added to the
instrument it is placed in the next available slot in the Envelope Selector
and is selected as the current envelope. When an envelope is removed
from the instrument the envelopes compact down and the envelope
following the deleted envelope becomes the active envelope.
The Move Up/Move Down menu items move the currently active envelope
one position up or down in the envelope slot array. This is useful for
grouping similar types of envelope (for example, amplitude envelopes)
together.
The Copy View and Paste View menu items are used for exchanging
envelopes between different envelope slots. The Copy View menu item
copies the currently selected envelope's settings into memory, while the
Paste View menu item pastes the settings currently stored in memory into
the selected envelope slot. The Reset View menu item clears the
envelope's current parameters and resets them to their default settings.
Note that the Copy View, Paste View and Clear View items only affect the
envelope that is currently displayed in the editor. This applies to the KBD
and VEL envelopes as well. As a result, if you select Copy View and have
ENV selected as the view option, only envelope points will be copied, but
not velocity or keyboard scaling points. The same applies to Paste View
and Clear View.
