Triggering the ECF-42 via MIDI
To trigger the envelope in the ECF-42, proceed as follows:
1. Create a sequencer track for the ECF-42.
This is easiest done by bringing up the context menu for the device and selecting “Create Track for XX” (where
“XX” is the name of this particular filter device).
2. Record or draw some notes on the sequencer track.
Remember that the envelope takes the note length and velocity into account. The note pitches doesn’t matter.
3. Play back the track.
The actual notes will not be heard (since the track is connected to the ECF-42, which produces no sound in itself)
but the envelope will be triggered according to the notes.
D You can even control the envelope “live” via MIDI: just set Master Keyboard input to the sequencer track for
the ECF-42 and play your MIDI instrument!
To route MIDI input to a track, click on the device icon in the track list, so that the Master Keyboard Input frame ap-
pears around it.
