Use track one to place RST in and that will cause
the step to NOT trigger the envelopes. (other seqs will still do their duty on
that step for whatever dest they are set on) As stephan said, use seq 1 to
control the triggering of the envelopes. BUT you still can dedicate it to to any
destination you want. (but you do sacrifice triggering that destination when you
set it to RST in order to create a rhythm in the sequence.
----- Original Message -----From: Scott KelloggSent: Friday, June 10, 2005 7:51 AMSubject: Re: [Evolver] n00b question (corrected response)Since every step generates a note on message, then in order to create
rhythmic sequences, it's necessary to set UCA to 0 on the steps that
one wishes to be silent. Is that correct?
Also, my sequences, when I stop on a step that has a UCA set to
something other than 0, do not decay. The sound on which the
sequence stopped continues until I either restart the sequencer, or
stop the sequencer again on a step that has UCA set to 0.
Does this make sense? I am sure I am missing some basic. Playing
with the VCA envelope settings didn't seem to help.
I appreciate your posts! Thank you!
