[EXS] Unused parameters in EXS?

2003-08-20 by Hendrik Jan Veenstra

When you open the EXS in Controls view, there are a bunch of 
parameters without attached value or slider -- like "Filter ADSR 
fixed" and "Filter ADSR via vel".  They're seen as a horizontal line 
with the foregoing text between parenthesis in the middle.
You can also get to see them by enabling Track Automation for an EXS 
track, picking some parameter to automate, and then hitting the 
numeric +/- keys to scroll through the parameters.

Does anyone have any idea what these are?  Are they obsolete 
parameters from the mk-I age?

I ask because I just got a copy of the Xtreme Analog library (by 
Emagic themselves) and the CD has a bunch of demo songs that utilize 
some of those parameters for (object based) automation.  However, all 
this automation has no audible effect, so I suspect those parameters 
to be pre-mkII indeed.  Would be silly though -- Emagic selling a CD 
for an old EXS version, and not taking advantage of new features (or 
not even updating their demos to work properly with the mkII).

Are there people here who still use the old EXS (mkI)?  If so, could 
any of you please contact me off-list, so I can get this figured out?
