Envelope Generator
Aug 2014
The Q109 Envelope Generator is one of the basic modules every synthesizer
must have. It generates a voltage envelope in response to a gate signal from a
keyboard, oscillator or other source. The envelope is used to control amplifiers,
filters, oscillators and other modules. The operator has complete manual control
over Attack time, Decay time, Sustain level, and Release time. A manual gate
button can be used to trigger the Envelope Generator at any time, and an LED
gives a visual indication of the output level.
