Re: OS 2.0 - New Envelope Parameter Mod Destinations

2003-10-15 by ski_ex5tech

I don't know if this will help you guys or not, but realize that the 
value(s) you apply with a modulator (sequencer, LFO, AT, etc.) to 
affect one of the new Envelope parameter mod destinations works 
OPPOSITE of the actual envelope parameters themselves.

For example, when you want a longer Envelope Attack, you INCREASE the 
value of the Attack, right?  However, if you apply a POSITIVE value 
to Envelope Attack via a modulator, you will DECREASE the Attack time.

That seemed backward to me, but Dave confirmed that was his intent.  
It all works fine (at least for me!), just as soon as you realize 
what's going on.

these settings for the sequencer set absolute values overriding the

maybe i havent experiemented enough.
