Re: Dark Energy: Velocity + ADSR

2011-06-06 by kloppe_andrew

Thanks ;

yes i tried patch CV3 to VCF F. The problem i had was the permanent signal/tone and the end of the ADSR envelope. VElocity works, but again the volume just doesn't decay to the inaudible.

I tried fiddling with the suggestion.

THat said, i just gave up. As you suggested i get the sense its not really possible with Dark Energy, as it comes out of the box.

Cheers.
