Using the ES P Envelope and Level Controls

The ES P features an ADSR envelope that affects both the filter cutoff (ADSR Int) and the level of the sound over time. This section also covers the master level control parameters.

Attack slider: Determines the time it takes for the signal to reach the initial, desired signal level (the sustain level).
Decay slider: Determines the time it takes for the signal to fall from the attack level to the sustain level.
Sustain slider: Determines the desired signal level (the sustain level).
Release slider: Determines the time it takes for the signal to fall from the sustain level to a level of zero.
Volume knob: Sets the overall output level of the ES P.
Velo Volume knob: Sets 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).
