[A6] Free running envolopes

[Rizal Khan]

Thanks Joan. I did refer to tips and tricks before I posted. But can I ask. In the trigger page, what is the source? Anything I've used doesn't stop envelope re triggering with the new notes. I don't mind recording the sweeps but I prefer to use the envelopes.

It is not possible to have a Mod Source set up to Trig an Envelope but have Trig: OFF, play the keyboard, and Press Trig to Enable the Mod Source, thus switching from keyboard Triggering to Mod Source Triggering. You must change Mode to allow this.

The text and parameters update to ReTrig. This allows for several different options. If you wish for an LFO (for example) to Trigger and then ReTrigger an Envelope, simply set the Source to that LFO in the Trig and ReTrig pages, and set the Level and Polarity the same on each page (or differently :)

This Sustain is Conditioned by the setting of the Polarity parameter. If Polarity is Positive and MOD-TG is the Mode, then a single positive-going Trigger will fire the Envelope, which will remain in it's Sustain phase until -another- positive-going Trigger is detected. To have the Mod Wheel, for example, be the Trigger, and for the Envelope to fire and enter Sustain for as long as the Mod Wheel is held above the threshold Level and for the Envelope to stop Sustaining and enter Release when the Mod Wheel is lowered below threshold, use the Bipolar Polarity. Up above threshold Level: Fires and Sustains; Down below threshold Level, Envelope enters Release. This of course holds for any Trigger that exhibits duration.

I especially like to do long pitch changes or filter sweeps (something like having the Attack at 15 seconds = 8 bars at 128BPM). Can someone guide me on how to do this. I try and try but it doesnt work no matter what I set the trigger to (i.e. freerun).
