Release Level
The final level the envelope reaches in the amount of time
specified by "Rel. Time (Release Level)."
Amplitude Amount
Represents the maximum level that the envelope will reach.
The rest of the envelope is scaled accordingly. For example,
if this is set to 50, the envelope's output will be half what the
other parameter specify.
Time Scale
0: R-Riff Length
1...10: 1 to 10 seconds in 1 second increments
Specifies the overall amount of time that each segment will
take when set to its maximum value. The envelopes in
KARMA GE are 3 segment envelopes; they have an attack
segment, decay segment, and release segment. For example,
if the attack segment time ("Attack time") was set to 99 and
the "Time Scale" to 1 second, the attack segment will take
1000 ms; if "Attack time" was set to 50, then the attack
segment will take 500 ms. If the times of all 3 segments were
set to 99, the total time of the envelope would be
approximately 3 seconds (not taking into account any time
spent at the sustain level). When set to 0: R-Riff Length, the
Time Scale is automatically scaled to the length of the
Generated Effect. This can be useful for such things as harp
glissandos, where supplying more/less notes as input will
cause the resulting envelopes to be slower/faster. Note that if
the Phase "Length Mode" is set to 1: TS-Time Signature,
then the length of a Phase is determined by the Time
Signature and not the number of notes played, so the results
of setting this to 0: R-Riff Length may not be noticeable in
that case.
Attack Smooth
0: Off 1: On
When set to 0: Off, retriggering an envelope will start it at its
preset Start Level regardless of its current position. When set
to 1: On, the envelope will restart from its current position,
not the Start Level. This can be used to "smooth" the
repeated retriggerings of the envelope.
Tempo Relative
0: Off 1: On
When 1: On, makes the selected envelope's time scale
relative to tempo. This means that the envelope can Track
the notes being generated, or a particular length of time. If
you have it set to make a particular shape over 1 bar of 4/4,
then changing the tempo will maintain this relationship by
scaling the tempo range of the envelope accordingly.
[0...99] Loop Mode
Selects one of several methods of causing the envelope to
loop continuously from one point back to another.
[0...99] 0: Off
1: S-Start Level
2: R-Start Level
3: A-Attack Level
0: Off
The envelope will proceed through all its segments in a
[0...10]
normal fashion.
1: S-Start Level
Upon reaching the Sustain Level, the envelope will loop
back to the Start Level and start over. Requires Envelope
Latch Mode (see "Envelope Latch" on page 123) to be set to
Off, Sus1, or Sus2. For continuous looping after key release,
you must have Sus2 selected - see the table below.
2: R-Start Level
Upon reaching the Release Level, the envelope will loop
back to the Start Level and start over. Requires Envelope
Latch Mode (see "Envelope Latch" on page 123) to be set to
Rel1 or Rel2. For continuous looping after key release, you
must have Rel2 selected - see the table below.
3: A-Attack Level
Upon reaching the Release Level, the envelope will loop
back to the Attack Level and start over. Requires Envelope
Latch Mode (see "Envelope1, Envelope2, Envelope3" on
page 122, and "Envelope Latch" on page 123) to be set to
Rel1 or Rel2. For continuous looping after key release, you
must have Rel2 selected - see the table below.
The following table illustrates the relationship between the 3
Envelope Loop Modes described above, and the Envelope
[0, 1]
Latch Modes (see "Env1 Latch Mode" on page 129).
[0, 1]
For example, assume you have an envelope timed to produce
a sweep over 1 bar of 4/4 at 120 BPM. If you change the
tempo to 60 and the "Tempo Reltv" parameter is 0: Off, the
envelope will still operate for the same length of time,
therefore sweeping over 1/2 of the bar of 4/4. If you set
tempo to 240, it would sweep over 2 measures of 4/4.
With "Tempo Reltve" 1: On, the time scale of the envelope
is changed according to the tempo. Therefore, it will always
sweep over 1 bar of 4/4 regardless of the tempo.
