ES E envelope parameters
The AR (Attack and Release) envelope affects both the filter cutoff (AR Int) and the level of the
sound over time.
Envelope parameters
••
Attack slider: Move to set the time it takes for the signal to reach the initial signal level, known
as the sustain level.
••
Release slider: Move to set the time it takes for the signal to fall from the sustain level to a level
of 0.
ES E output parameters
The ES E output stage consists of the Volume section and the Chorus/Ensemble buttons.
Output Parameters
••
Volume knob: Rotate to set the overall output level.
••
Velo Volume knob: Rotate to set the amount (depth) of velocity sensitivity to incoming MIDI
note events. When set to higher values, each note is louder, if struck more firmly. At lower
values, the dynamic response is reduced, so that there is little difference when you play a note
pianissimo (soft) or forte (loud/hard).
••
Chorus I, Chorus II, and Ensemble buttons: Turn these effect variations on or off. If no button is
active, the effects processor is turned off.
••
Chorus I is a typical chorus effect.
••
Chorus II is characterized by a stronger modulation.
••
Ensemble has a fuller and richer sound, due to a more complex modulation routing.
