Main Envelope

The main envelope affects five effects:

1. Crossfade

2. Noise Gate

3. Mod Params

4. Transient Detector

5. VFX Envelopes

While playing softly in a home studio, turn up the main envelope sensitivity. Before blasting on a live stage, turn down the main envelope sensitivity.

The further the mic is in the bell, the lower the main envelope sensitivity will need to be.

Parameters

• Main

  Envelope sensitivity.

• Freq

  The frequency to boost.

• Boost

  The amount in dB to boost the selected frequency.

  Boosting between 1 kHz - 4 kHz makes the envelope respond to the brightness of the tuba’s sound. It’s a simple way to apply frequency weighting that makes the envelope a bit snappier.

• Q

  The “quality” / resonance of the boost.
