Editing Envelopes
Beat Agent features pitch, lter, and amplier envelopes. These envelopes are available on the
Pitch, Filter, and Amp tabs.
Each of these multisegment envelopes has up to 128 nodes, for which Time, Level, and Curve
parameters are available. The nodes and their parameters specify the shape of the envelope. You
can edit one or multiple nodes by dragging them in the graphical envelope editor or by entering
values manually. When editing an envelope node, a value tooltip displays the current settings of
the node.
Snap
If Snap is activated and you change the position of nodes, they snap to the nodes of
the guide envelope that is shown in the background.
NOTE
Pitch envelope nodes also snap to semitone positions.
Guide Envelope
On this pop-up menu, you can select a second envelope to be displayed in the
background of the edited envelope.
● If Snap is activated, moved nodes snap to the guide envelope.
Fixed
● If Fixed is activated and you move selected nodes on the time axis, only the
selected nodes are moved.
●
If Fixed is deactivated, all nodes that follow the edited nodes are also moved.
Show Channel Sum/Show Left Channel/Show Right Channel
With these buttons, you can show the sample waveform in the background of the
envelope display. Any editing you perform on the envelopes is automatically reected
in the waveform.
●
Show Channel Sum shows the mono sum of the sample in the display.
●
Show Left Channel shows the left channel of the sample.
●
Show Right Channel shows the right channel of the sample.
