envelope to the filter's cutoff frequency. Any setting above zero means
that each time you strike a key, the filter envelope controls how the filter
opens and closes. Higher amounts more dramatically affect the cutoff
frequency. This control is bipolar. Positive settings produce standard
behavior. Negative settings invert the envelope.

frequency. If on, the harder you play, the more the filter will open and the
brighter the sound will be. If off, key velocity will not affect the filter.
This control allows for more touch-sensitive sounds.

(note on) and when the attack portion actually begins.
Env Repeat: Off, On —When on, the Delay, Attack, and Decay segments
of the envelope repeat. Sustain still affects the level at which the Decay
segment ends, but instead of sustaining at a fixed level while a note is
gated on, Delay, Attack, and Decay loop until the note is turned off. The
Release segment begins when the note is gated off, just as it does when
Repeat is off.

Key>LPF Freq: 0...127 —Sets the amount of modulation from the
keyboard to the filter's cutoff frequency. Any setting above zero means
that the higher the note played on the keyboard, the more the filter opens.
This is useful for adding brightness to a sound as higher notes are played,
which is typically how acoustic instruments behave. When set to zero,
keyboard filter tracking is off, meaning that filter frequency is unaffected by
playing higher or lower notes on the keyboard. When set to 127, the filter
will track in half-step increments, which can be useful if you are using
the filter to generate a pitch through self-oscillation.
The description of envelope behavior just given is true when the
eter is set to a positive value. But since this control is actually bipolar, it is possible to
set a negative amount of modulation. In this case, the envelopes are inverted and their
behavior changes. The best way to get a feel for the difference is to experiment with
both positive and negative settings of the
