(electronic notes) - [Narrator] Now let's move beyond just repatching the modules that are built into the Mother-32 and actually adding external modules to add to its capabilities. This particular case, I want to add an envelope generator, another one of these attack/decay sections. In this case, I'm using a Roland 540, just two envelope-generator sections, and also adds an extra LFO into the mix. Here's the reason I want to add an envelope to the Mother. If I'm just playing short notes, I get pretty similar articulations. (short electronic notes) However, if I want to sustain a note, I have to make a choice. Do I want everything to be sustained at full volume? (long electronic note) Full filter cutoff? Full volume from the VCA? Or do I want there to be no sustain, where everything dies to silence, decided by this decay control? (short electronic notes) It gives me that nice "bow" sound from the filter. (short electronic note) But then there's no sound as I sustain a note. It's as if…
