OK now I gotta see that commercial. Link?

Well, this was the one I was thinking of from when I was younger. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk71h2CQ_xM

Why "over drive"? - You wouldn't modulate the envelope's amplitude by itself. You'd modulate the rate. This way one can shape the slopes to taste, from very snappy to very punchy. For example, during the attack phase you can make attack slower and slower. Or faster and faster, while the envelope rises.Dasheesh wrote:Urs wrote:

I think I was the one to bring that up on this forum first. I couldn't wrap my head around what was going on there. If you assign env. 1 to env. 1 it gets real weird. How can an envelope over drive itself? Isn't it already at 100%?

What's the point of that? Modulating an envelope with an envelope doesn't sound very intuitive to me. I prefer the usual slope selectors and velocity -> envelope controls (ideally not via the matrix, but dedicated knobs), that is already much more than most hardware synths offer.

The point of that is that you can modulate the slope dynamically, during envelope's execution. Just like, for example, on a Virus. It's perfectly intuitive as it's a recursion.

So, basically you are simply replacing each phase such as the attack by a little sub-envelope instead of a mathematical function

I think that is excessive.
I would prefer an envelope display instead, where one can overlap several envelopes -- especially filter and amp -- and zoom in so that one can see for instance the synth brass bump, or link attack phases with an offset, or see the absolute duration of envelopes relative to each other.

If you assign envelope one amount to envelope one amount, what's going on?
Because it's some kind of mind blowing physics feedback loop that is hard for me to wrap my head around.

Just a little extra maths to work out the actual envelope values while the voice is calculated.Dasheesh wrote:If you assign envelope one amount to envelope one amount, what's going on?

Not exactly. You're multiplying each phase such as the attack by itself to change the shape.fluffy_little_something wrote:So, basically you are simply replacing each phase such as the attack by a little sub-envelope instead of a mathematical function
For a visual example, go on wolfram alpha or use a graphing calculator or graphing app and graph y=x. That upward line represents the envelope attack. Now compare that to y=x^2. That curve is how the shape changes when you multiply the envelope by itself. You can do the same with y=(-x) and y=(-x)^2 to see the effect on the decay and release stages. Those are almost exactly the calculations the synth itself is presumably doing to generate the envelope shapes.
By doing that in the mod matrix it's basically a mathematical way to get at the curve shape. Do I want the envelope curves to be convex or concave/bend inwards or outwards?

well, I think it's a little more complicated then that because you have the shape of the entire envelope shaping one stage of the envelope, not shaping the entire envelope.... I'm still not satisfied with modulating envelope amount buy envelope amount of the same envelope.... I'm getting freaked out trying to visualize that. It's like a bad experience.nineofkings wrote:Not exactly.

These were my two complaints about Spire, and they have been for more then a year now. You've seen my complaints before I'm sure.
1: The envelopes descend into chaos and hard to control.
2: something about the cpu "optimization" is holding it back when you use an Oscillator as modulator. It becomes a filthy mess.
