Full Version: CV16 envelopes revisited

Hi forum!

Today my 2nd CV16 arrived (hear, hear  Cool ) and that got me to revisit my use of modulators in general and envelopes in particular.

I understand the CV16 sports 8 envelopes and 8 LFOs that are setup and configured through the Track Setup screen which in turn is accessed from the Nerd Menu. So far so obvious.
[I'd like a translation of the various numerical values into ms/s for durations and V for voltages in the info line at the bottom of the screen, but that's something for a feature request]

What I would like to know (and I have not seen that in the manual but may very well have overlooked it) is, whether entering ^11, ^21, ^31, ..., ^81 in a note column of a pattern of a CV16 track does access/trigger the envelope of the CV16 or the corresponding envelope of the NerdSEQ automators (i.e. the main module).

I assume it is the CV16 envelope. Can someone confirm or correct me here?

If it is not the CV16 envelope: How would I access the CV16 envelope (or LFO) then?
If is is the CV16 envelope: How would I access the NerdSEQ automators (not that I think I'd need it but I'd like to know anyway Wink )?

Another question regarding the envelopes:
From the graphs I deduce attack and release are linear. Is that correct?
And how would I get exp behaviour? [or is this feature request material?  Cool ]

Kind regards,
Michael
There is no translation in the numbers to time with the envelopes, because they only decide the speed. Depending on the amplitudes/offsets you use the times change.
The envelopes controlled from the CV16 expander columns refer only to CV16'ns own envelopes. (or LFO) So the ^ commands (which stands for envelope) are only for the CV16 envelopes and only output on the CV16 outputs.

Also be aware for the loval ADSR envelopes of the NerdSEQ. You never need the automators at all to use them.

There is no possibility at the moment to manipulate the local ADSR envelopes from a CV16 track, but that will be added next (actually I just figured out while checking for it right now).

All envelopes are linear and there is no plan for a exponential response.
