Working with the Amp Envelope Generator
- [Instructor] Each part in Sylenth has a dedicated envelope generator control signal. In this case, we have an ADSR. An ADSR envelope stands for attack, decay, sustain, and release. It's very common in many synthesizers. Even the way it's commonly accessed, with four faders gives a really nice visual representation of how it works. Let's take a closer look at an ADSR envelope on this chart. So first, we're looking at a graph of amplitude over time and an ADSR envelope has four stages. The first stage is Attack, which is the time it takes to reach the highest value of amplitude. Next, we have Decay, which is essentially the time it takes to reach Sustain, and Sustain is a maintained amplitude here, over time, and then we have our Release. Now the first of these stages in the synthesizer are based on the key press stages, and when a key is released, we're in the Release stage, which is essentially a measure of the time it takes to get back to the lowest value of amplitude. The ADSR…
