I'd really like to be able to play the TKB by hand so that the note(s) played has a typical envelope shape and the end result is silence. I've been struggling to figure out how to do this and I was hoping that someone could shine some light on this.

A second and related concern is my inability to create an envelope that results in silence. I'm trying to do this by applying the envelope to the AM on the UAP/Xfader and when the envelope is through I can still hear the note droning on and not the silence I was hoping for.

Thanks again for all the help.

Of course you can also run KV through a scaler or a quantizer.
