CHAPTER 23. LIVE INSTRUMENT REFERENCE 441
The time it takes for the envelope to reach the sustain level after the attack phase is set by
the Decay knob.
The Sustain knob sets the level at which the envelope will remain from the end of the decay
phase to the release of the key. When this knob is turned all the way to the left, there is no
sustain phase. W ith it turned all the way to the right, there is no decay phase. The sustain
level can be additionally modulated by velocity via the Vel slider below the knob. Higher
values result in an increased sustain level as the velocity increases.
Finally, the release time is set with the Release knob. This is the time it takes for the envelope
to reach zero after the key is released.
The LFO subsection provides an additional modulation source for the lter. This section can
be toggled on or off via the switch next to its name.
The waveform chooser sets the type of waveform used by the LFO. You can choose between
sine, triangle, rectangular and two types of random waveforms. The rst random waveform
steps between random values while the second uses smoother ramps.
The Delay knob sets how long it will take for the LFO to start after the note begins, while
Attack sets how long it takes for the oscillator to reach its full amplitude.
The LFO's speed is set with the Rate knob. The switches below this knob toggle the Rate
between frequency in Hertz and tempo-synced beat divisions.
The entire Filter section can be toggled on or off via the switch next to its name.
