NOTE: Should you select a preset and then leave this page, when you return, you will
note that the template is renamed and becomes ENV1.

envelope generator is hardwired to amplitude control and so always sets the sound's
overall envelope.

This calls up a series of preset envelope templates that
have been set within the software of the S3000XL. You
can use these to get close to the type of envelope you are
after and then maybe fine tune them afterwards if needs
be. ENV1 is the 'manual' envelope - i.e. the one you can
program yourself. If you select a preset envelope and then
edit it, you will note that it immediately become ENV1, the
programmable envelope.
You will notice that any envelope you create is not lost
when you select a preset - ENV1 (your own envelope) is
always retained as you scroll through the list of available
envelopes although ENV1 will be lost if you edit a preset.
This sets the time the envelope will take to reach full level.
This sets the time it will take to reach the sustain level.
