REALTIME CONTROL MODULE

CONTROL 7 - Function: ATTACK RATE

1. ATK RATE controls the VCA attack rate. To assign this destination to the control source

(selected as per GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 6), key in 7.

Application hint: When assigned to the Right wheel, rotating the wheel away from you

increases the attack time. This effect is useful when changing from legato to percussive

effects, especially with sustained sounds such as strings.

Note: With ATK RATE assigned to a wheel, VCA/LFO module function 1A (VCA attack)

and Filter module function 3A (filter attack) are disabled. Therefore, Filter and VCA

attack rates are determined solely by the wheel setting.

1. To turn off the footswitch (selected as per GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 6), key in 0.

1. To start and stop the Sequencer via footswitch, after selecting the desired footswitch key

in 1.

1. For footswitch controlled sustain, after selecting the desired footswitch (as per

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 6) key in 2.

Note: If you play a looped sound while the footswitch is pressed, as soon as the looped

portion begins it will sustain (even after lifting your fingers off the keys) until the

footswitch is released. Holding down the footswitch continuously provides a hold function

for looped notes, where the last eight notes played will sustain for as long as the

footswitch is pressed.

If you play an unlooped sound while the footswitch is pressed, it will play through its

entire length (whether or not you are holding down a key), then stop.
