description / manual
ADSR can be triggered with a Gate signal and will output the envelope with a range of 0V to +8V on the regular output jack and 0V to -8V on the inverted output jack.
The envelope may be re-triggered using the RTRG input as long as the Gate on the Gate Input is high.
ADSR has three different Length Modes from Slow over Moderate to Fast. The envelope can be very short (20uS) up to very long (110s) making it a useful tool for percussion like sounds and evolving soundscapes. The Moderate Mode is the best option for regular synth sounds.
The LED between the A (Attack) and D (Decay) potentiometer indicates the current state of the envelope.
