Hello

I'd like to set a log value (well ... 'inverted log' to be precise) to the AmpVol in the patchcord editor, because I really need a smooth long-lasting curve on that rhodes (+great attack) ... is there any tricky way to do this whith summing amps or something via patchchords ??

I ask this because I never came to something really satisfying with the amp envelope

Thanks

Olivier

To be more precise, I'd need something like this :

under Midi Preference via Ctrl.#7
Master - Midi - Pref 1

Man, I suppose this only deals with the velocity response ... ?
What I need is a signal that begins when I play a note and that varies during the living of the note ...
Sorry if I'm not clear

I think you're almost there with the summing idea.

I'm sure a sharp attack on AmpEnvelope summed with a slowly oscillating sine wave LFO might produce some useful results. The LFO can be delayed as well so it doesn't have to kick in straight away. You might have to use the DC offset to move reduce the total result.

Just had another thought - LFO1 speed modulated by a triangle LFO2 thingy. The curve would start off steep then slowly elongate as the triangle tooth decreases. Would take alot of experimenting but the graph in my mind looks OK

Apologies if this is tosh as I'm far from an Emu or manual at the moment and I'm on my 3rd glass of wine.

Try the " Lag Prozessor ", maybe there you get your Sound.

AttackTime - in LagIn 0 - / or / and - Amount in CC - and so on and so on

There is nothing in that machine, not with what you can do.

Guys this is quite exactly what I wanted to hear
Thanks for that great tracks ... I'll try different combinations (routed to pitch first, which in my opinion is the best way to realize what the curve "looks like") and post here if I come to something satisfying

Thanks again !

I realize that I'm late to the party, but you can accomplish this easy with recursive modulation.

Modding an attack that is linear with the same attack will make it exponential.

That would work fine if the modulation was multiplied, but I'm pretty sure it is summed, so you just end up wih a linear attack that is twice as steep. I may be wrong tho if anyone wants to give it a go.

It works. Here is a small wav demonstrating the attacks.

First is linear, second is linear but twice the rate of the first, and the third is the rate of the first, but has its attack rate modded by its own envelope 100%

You can look at the file in an editor and see the slopes, but you can hear it in this example.

Wow this looks like the perfect answer
Thanks a lot !
