Secondary Modes And Options - Electro-Harmonix Attack Decay Manual

S
ECONDARY
The Attack Decay features a number of secondary modes and options to
customize the pedal for your specific use. See page 22 for a table listing
the secondary modes and the button presses needed to change them.
CONTINUOUS ENVELOPES (RETRIGGERED TREMOLO)
Normally when a volume envelope is triggered, it runs through the Attack
envelope then the Decay envelope and then waits for the next trigger
event at which point it starts the Attack envelope over from its beginning.
Continuous Envelope (CE) mode automatically restarts the Attack
envelope as soon as the Decay envelope finishes. This produces a tremolo
effect where tremolo rate and waveshape are set by adjusting the ATTACK
and DECAY knobs. The ATTACK knob sets the rise time of the tremolo
effect; DECAY sets the fall time of the tremolo.
To Toggle CE (tremolo) mode on and off:
1. Press and hold the BYPASS footswitch.
2. While holding the BYPASS footswitch, press and release the
HARMONIX/PRESET footswitch. Then release both footswitches.
3. The PRESET 1 button will blink quickly to indicate that Continuous
Envelope (CE) Mode has been turned on.
4. To turn off CE Mode, repeat steps 1 & 2. The PRESET 3 button will
blink slowly to indicate that CE Mode has been turned off.
 When saving presets, each preset saves its own CE Mode status.
 CE mode is activated independently for Mono and Poly modes.
HARMONIX BLEND MODE
By default, the BLEND knob controls master wet/dry mix and its output
goes directly to the VOL knob. Optionally the Attack Decay can be put into
Harmonix Blend mode where the BLEND knob adjusts fuzz/dry mix
immediately after the Harmonix fuzz block. The Harmonix Blend mix is
then output to the volume envelopes. Harmonix Blend replicates the
HARMONICS knob found on the vintage Attack Decay.
Harmonix Blend mode is a temporary mode, allowing you to use the
BLEND knob to set Harmonix Blend while this mode is active. Here's how
to enter, use and exit Harmonix Blend mode:
1. Ensure Harmonix mode is enabled, the H LED is lit.
2. Press and hold the BYPASS footswitch.
