Envelope tab controls  
The following sections describe all controls located on the Envelope tab.

Description 
Impulse 
This control is identical to the Impulse drop-down list on the General tab. This allows you to 
view the envelope graphs for the specified impulse fileFor more information, see 
Dry Out 
This control is identical to the Dry Out fader on the General tab. For more information, see

Envelope Graph 
This control is identical to the Wet Out fader on the General tab. For more information, see 
imit decay  This control is identical to the Apply envelope and limit decay check box on the General tab. 
Selecting the Apply envelope and limit decay check box turns on the Envelope Graph. You 
can use the envelope graph to decrease the length of the specified impulse file, which 
consequently decreases the reverberation decay time and processing time. You can also use 
the envelope graph to apply fades to the specified impulse file. 
The horizontal axis of the graph represents the time of the impulse file and the vertical axis 
represents peak amplitude in dB. Specifying an impulse file from the Impulse drop-down list 
automatically displays its envelope in the graph. 
Note: 
If the impulse file is greater than 6 seconds in length, it does not display in the 
envelope graph. 
Envelope points 
Envelope points are used in the envelope graph to specify a fade curve. The fade amount can 
vary from 0% to 100%. You can create, delete, and arrange envelope points just as you can in all 
of the Sound Forge envelope graphs. For more information, see 
Note: 
The fade value at any point in a curve does not use the same vertical logarithmic (dB) 
scale used for displaying the impulse file. 
Reset 
Clicking this button resets the envelope points to 100%, indicating no fade. 
Package Impulse into Preset 
Clicking this button creates a link between the current preset and the selected impulse file, 
along with encoding the impulse information. You can use the Preset Manager to share presets 
and the accompanying impulse files between computers without losing information. For more 
information, see 
Adjusting the impulse length 
Drag the vertical Envelope Endpoint line to the desired location. The Envelope Endpoint is repositioned and the length of the impulse 
is adjusted.
