Trigger
is denes the control source that starts the current layer’s ASRs. e ASR starts when the
trigger switches from o to on. If the Trigger parameter is set to ON, a global ASR starts
running immediately when you select a program that contains it. A local ASR starts running
as soon as you trigger a note in the layer that contains it. Switch controls are better suited for
ASR triggers because of their binary (on/o) nature. A continuous control will trigger the
ASRs when its signal value is above its midpoint.
Mode
is parameter sets the sustain section of the ASR. e ASR’s mode determines what the
ASR does when it nishes its attack section. If the Mode parameter is set to Normal, the
ASR will run directly from its attack section to its release section (no sustain). At a setting of
Repeat, the ASR will cycle through the attack and release sections, then loop forward and
cycle through again until the ASR’s trigger switches o. If the mode is set to Hold, the ASR
maintains its position at the end of the attack section until the ASR’s trigger switches o.
e ASR then goes into its release section. If the ASR’s trigger switches o before the attack
section is complete, the ASR goes directly to its release section.
Delay
When the ASR’s trigger switches on, the ASR will start immediately if this parameter is set to
zero. Nonzero values will cause a corresponding delay between the ASR trigger and the start
of the ASR.
Attack
is denes how long the ASR takes to ramp up from minimum to maximum eect on
whatever it’s patched to.
Release
is denes how long the ASR takes to fade to minimum from its maximum. If the ASR’s
trigger switches o before the ASR has reached maximum, the ASR releases from that level.
