DEVICE OVERVIEW

6.3

Rise and Fall

The

Release

knob determines the release time when the input gate is stopped.

When the

Trigger

input is used instead of the

Gate

input, the envelope is

re-triggered by a positive voltage impulse at the trigger input. It then runs until
the last decay stage and goes immediately into release. If you patch both,

Trigger

and

Gate

inputs, then the

Trigger

input would restart the envelope even

when the

Gate

input is still held positive.

When the

Loop

switch gets activated, the envelope is automatically re-started

when the final decay level is reached.

This of course happens under the

gate/trigger logic, i.e. you still need to feed a gate signal to get it running. If
the gate input isn’t patched, then the gate signal from the Eurorack bus is used,
but only if the trigger input isn’t patched. The inverse output gives the same
envelope but with negative voltages.

Rise and Fall

This section is a short attack-release envelope generator that is gated from the
input.

The curve for the rising phase is shaped by the curve knob from straight to
curved. The falling phase is always curved.

When the

Loop

switch is activated, the envelope toggles between rising and

falling phase while the input receives a positive gate signal. In this mode it is
more a cycled attack-decay envelope. The LED indicates an active rise phase.

If the input isn’t patched, then the gate signal from the Eurorack bus is used.
