Re: quickie on filter and vca

2003-04-16 by Ravi Ivan Sharma

Well iff you still have the original shipping patch in Bank1, Patch 
1, just start the sequencer, hit the button for the VCA row and 
adjust the VCA ADRS release. You should hear the sequencer go from 
staccato to legato. If it is does, then your vca env is fine. 
otherwise your evolver has a problem.
