WHAT TO KNOW

THE FIELD

Mode, on the ASR page: Norm, Hold or Rept.

HOW EACH RUNS

Norm: delay, attack, release, once. Hold: delay, attack, then 1 for as long as the trigger is on, then the release. Rept: delay, then attack and release in turn while the trigger is on; the delay comes only once.

USE IT FOR

Norm for a swell or a dip that comes and goes; Hold for a delayed vibrato or a fade that stays; Rept for a slow, rising and falling motion that starts with each note, a triangle LFO of its own.

WATCH OUT

A Norm ASR with a long release works as a Hold for any note shorter than its release. A Rept ASR's cycle is its attack plus its release.

IN THE FACTORY PROGRAMS

Norm in 842 of the factory's ASRs, Hold in 574, Rept in 150. A Rept ASR's cycle, its attack plus its release, has a median of 4 s.
