eters. With the graphic display, the controls are very
intuitive and easy to understand. Moreover, a set of pre-
programmed EG Templates make it easy and quick to get
suitable EG settings. Once you’ve copied a Template, you
can then “tweak” it with the individual edit controls.

About the EG Segments
For display purposes and ease of editing, the EG graphic is
divided into four segments: Segments (Seg) 1 - 3, and
Release (Rel). Segment 1 corresponds to the Attack portion
of the EG, Segment 2 to the Decay 1 portion, Segment 3 to
the Decay 2 portion, and Release to the Release.
