Skewed Sine Env Unit

A knoll-shaped envelope with apex modulation.
Skewed Sine Env
dur

Overview

This AR-type envelope is generated from a single lobe of the sine wave. Instead of separate controls for attack and release which would complicate setting the duration, there is a skew parameter to lean the envelope left or right, and a parameter to set the total envelope duration.

Parameters

input

Comparator
Watches the input for a trigger.

This parameter gives you access to the threshold level of the input comparator used to detect the rising edge of the incoming trigger signal. There is also a button for manually firing triggers.

dur

Gain/Bias
Envelope duration.

This parameter determines the duration of the envelope from start to finish.

skew

Gain/Bias
Shifts the envelope's apex forward or backward in time.

Pulls the apex of the envelope forward (positive skew) or backwards (negative skew). A good value for a punchy attack with pleasant amount of release is -0.5.

level

Gain/Bias
Sets envelope amplitude.

Sets the height of the envelope’s apex.
