Re: [PolySix] Velocity Sensitivity

2015-10-23 by Florian Anwander

Hello,

There are two topics to think about:
1.) Do you want to add the velocity also to the VCA control (means: gate 
and env to the VCA are sensitive).

2.) The envelope amount of the original Polysix is not simply an adder, 
but the sustain voltage is used as an negative offset to the Cutoff 
frequency. It is not a 100% offset like at yamahas polyphonic CS-series, 
but it is about 40%. You can test it out if you set the attack,, decay 
and release to minimum and set sustain to ~10:30 position. The turn up 
the envelope amount and you will find that the cutoff frequency does not 
change (or nearly does not change).
