1. 2 The Volume Envelope Controls The Volume Envelopes come in three flavors e Complex Pads have three envelopes one for each of the three channels e Elements have a single volume envelope e Menus have an envelope per sound All volume envelopes feature the following controls e ATT attack controls the attack fade in time e DEC decay controls the time it take for the volume to fade from the maximum value to the sustain value e SUS sustain controls the level at which the envelope will sustain while the key is held e REL release controls the release fade out time of the envelope after the key Is released The 3 channel instruments have 3 tabs above the ADSR controls to select which envelope you are currently editing The instruments with an envelope per sample will have note readout showing you the selected Samples corresponding MIDI key Selecting an envelope to edit is as simple as playing the key of the sample you wish to select In both of the above cases you will find a LINK button Clicking on this will link all the ADSR envelopes and set them to the currently displayed settings So when LINK is active you are effectively able to use a single ADSR for all sounds 3 2 2 Twist and Punish FX All instruments have a central area in the Main Page that is divided into three to four tabs The exact tabs differ depending on which instrument type you have loaded but all instruments include the P2.
