ENVELOPES
The envelopes determine the brightness and volume contour of a sound, and the filter
envelope can be used as a source in the modulation section. Each of the Sub Phatty’s
envelope generators has four stages: attack, decay, sustain, and release (abbreviated ADSR).
ATTACK: Specifies the time it takes for the filter or amplifier to ascend to their peak value.
Page 18, 19
DECAY: Specifies the time it takes for the filter or amplifier to descend to the steady sustain
level.
Page 18, 19
SUSTAIN: Specifies the filter or amplifier level held during a note event until the key is
released. Page 18, 19
RELEASE: Specifies the time it takes for the filter to descend to the CUTOFF knob setting or
for the amplifier to descend to zero. Page 18, 19
ENVELOPE SHIFT MODE PARAMETERS
The FILTER and AMPLIFIER tabs control additional hidden FILTER and AMPLIFIER ENVELOPE
parameters.
DELAY specifies a timed pause before the onset of the attack, effectively turning an ADSR
envelope into a DADSR envelope. Page 23, 24
HOLD: Specifies the amount of time that the envelope holds at the peak level between the
attack and decay stages, effectively turning an ADSR envelope into an AHDSR envelope.
This can be used to simulate the clipped envelopes of vintage synthesizers such as the
Minimoog Model D, giving the peak a short sustain before the decay stage.

VEL TO AMT: Specifies the Filter or Amplitude Envelope amount scaled by velocity, which
makes the sound brighter or louder in response to pressing the keys faster on the keyboard.
Page 23, 24
VEL TO TIME: Specifies the amount that velocity scales Filter or Amplitude Envelope decay
and release times, so that pressing keys faster on the keyboard lengthens the envelope time.
