are discussed fully, later in this manual.
Fastest overall envelope, good for percussive sounds.
Approximate maximum times are:
A :
~1.5 to 2.0 s
D/R : ~4 to 5 s
Medium speed envelope, good for most sound design duties.
Approximate maximum times are:
A :
~10 to 12 s
D/R : ~22 to 24 s
Long, slow envelope good for pads, drones, and evolving sounds.
Approximate maximum times are:
A :
~20 to 27 s
D/R : ~45 to 50 s
