There are three mode options:
• Time-based: Defines the Filter Envelope rates from 0 to 127 (approxi-
mately 1 ms to 160 seconds). The Master clock has no affect on time-
based rates.

FILT ENV
Attack 1
• Tempo-based: The Filter Envelope times vary based on the master
tempo setting and are displayed in values such as 1, 2, 3, etc. Note values
are displayed instead of a number when the time corresponds to an
exact note value. Tempo-based envelopes are useful when using arpeg-
giators and sequencers because the envelope rates compress and expand
according to the Master Tempo setting, keeping the envelopes in sync
with the music. See the illustration on page 96.

Attack 1
• Envelope Repeat: The Envelope Generators can also be made to repeat.
When the envelope repeat function is On, the Attack (1&2) and Decay
(1&2) stages will continue to repeat as long as the key is held. As soon as
the key is released, the envelope continues through its normal Release
stages (1 & 2). For more information, see "Envelope Repeat" on page 96.
