Making Envelope Settings

This section explains the envelope setting screens.

Velocity Curve (Envelope Velocity Curve)

Choose from the following seven curves to specify how your keyboard playing strength will affect the envelope depth. If you don’t want your keyboard playing strength to affect the envelope depth, set this to “0”.

Value: 0–7

0 1 2 3

4 5 6 7

Velocity Sens (Envelope Velocity Sensitivity)

Keyboard playing dynamics can be used to control the depth of the envelope. If you want the envelope to have more effect for strongly played notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want the pitch envelope to have less effect for strongly played notes, set this to a negative (-) value.

Value: -63– +63

Velocity A-Sens (Envelope Attack Time Velocity Sensitivity)

This allows keyboard dynamics to affect the attack time of the envelope. If you want attack time to be speeded up for strongly played notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value.

Value: -63– +63

Velocity D-Sens (Envelope Decay Time Velocity Sensitivity)

This allows keyboard dynamics to affect the decay time of the envelope. If you want decay time to be speeded up for strongly played notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value.

Value: -63– +63

Velocity R-Sens (Envelope Release Time Velocity Sensitivity)

The parameter to use when you want key release speed to control the release time value of the envelope. If you want release time to be speeded up for quickly released notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value.

Value: -63– +63

ADSR Attack (Envelope Attack Time) ★◆

Specifies the attack time of the envelope (the time from when you press a key until the envelope level reaches the maximum value). Value: 0–127, Note

ADSR Decay (Envelope Decay Time) ★◆

Specifies the decay time of the envelope (the time from when the envelope level reaches the maximum value until it falls to a constant value).

Value: 0–127, Note

ADSR Sustain (Envelope Sustain Level) ★

Specifies the sustain level of the envelope (the level at which the envelope remains constant).

Value: 0–127

ADSR Release (Envelope Release Time) ★◆

Specifies the release time of the envelope (the time from when you release a key until the envelope level reaches 0).

Value: 0–127, Note

“ENVELOPE” in the lower right of the screen shows a graphical representation of the envelope produced by the current settings.

Env Depth (Envelope Depth)

Specifies the depth of the envelope. Higher settings will cause the envelope to produce greater change. Negative (-) settings will invert the shape of the envelope.

Value: -63– +63

Env Time KF (Envelope Time Key Follow)

Make this setting when you want the decay time and subsequent times of the envelope to be affected by the location of the key you play. Based on the envelope times for the C4 key (center C), positive

(+)settings will cause notes higher than C4 to have increasingly shorter times, and negative (-) settings will cause them to have increasingly longer times. Larger settings will produce greater change.

Value: -200– +200
