Instrument Settings

ADSR Settings

ADSR stands for Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release and is used to control the volume

envelope from the moment you trigger a note, to the moment you release the note.

Attack: Is the amount of time taken for the voice to reach it's maximum volume.

Decay: How quickly the sound reduces in volume after the initial peak.

Sustain: The constant volume that is maintained until the note is released.

Release: How quickly the sound fades after the note is released.

VCF Settings

VCF stands for Voltage Controlled Filter, and is used to filter out unwanted frequencies

of a sound.

Enable: Enables the filter.

Random: Enables random mode. This causes the cutoff settings to randomly change for

every triggered note.

Cutoff & Resonance: The 'Cutoff' frequency and 'Resonance' together allow you alter

the tone colors by boosting or cutting harmonics in the sound.

Changing the resonance accents frequencies around the cutoff frequency.

BEWARE: Setting the resonance too high can cause distortion on some sounds rich in

harmonics, so please be aware of this.

Filter ADSR: These settings work in a similar manner to the amplifier ADSR, only this

time the envelope is applied to the filter and not the volume.
