Title: Envelope Modulation Bug ?
Post by: Moho on October 02, 2021, 06:31:18 PM
When modulating the envelope times you have to modulate them by a negative amount to increase the time.

Too counter intuitive for it not to be a bug.

I can confirm that this is how Pro 3 envelope modulation works, though. Positive modulation makes the times faster, negative modulation makes the times slower. It seems pretty intuitive to me.

It's the opposite of the pots if you think of "clockwise" as "positive," so I can sort of see where you're coming from. But I don't think it's a bug, or at least one unique to Take 5.

I was just thinking adding a positive would add to the time and negative would take away, when it's more like advancing and retarding the times.
Thanks for clearing that up  8)

Maybe thinking as voltages helps a bit how it works.
Positive adds more voltage/current to an already existing envelope voltage slope - making it reach a certain voltage quicker.
