There are three mode options:
• Time-based: Defines the Filter Envelope rates from 0 to 127 (approxi-
mately 1 ms to 160 seconds). The Master clock has no affect on time-
based rates.

• Tempo-based: The Filter Envelope times vary based on the Master Clock
(Base Tempo) setting and are displayed in values such as 1, 2, 3, etc. Note
values are displayed instead of a number when the time corresponds to
an exact note value. Tempo-based envelopes are useful when using
arpeggiators and sequencers because the envelope rates compress and
expand according to the Base Tempo setting, keeping the envelopes in
sync with the music. See the illustration on page 60.

• Envelope Repeat: The Envelope Generators can also be made to repeat.
When the envelope repeat function is On, the Attack (1&2) and Decay
(1&2) stages will continue to repeat as long as the key is held. As soon as
the key is released, the envelope continues through its normal Release
stages (1 & 2). For more information, see "Envelope Repeat" on page 60.
