An envelope generator affects a signal level over time. The envelope starts when it receives a trig or gate
signal and it closes when the trig/gate signal switches back to zero. During the active stages, the envelopes
can be retriggered. You have control over certain time-dependent parameters and levels (ADSR and Mul-
ti-envelope only) in the Nord Modular envelopes. The output signal from an envelope is usually unipolar,
from 0 to + 64 units (or if inverted, from +64 to 0 units), but can also be bipolar.
• If the logic gate signal at the Gate input on an ADSR envelope generator switches to zero before the
envelope has completed one or more of the stages, the envelope will jump directly to the release stage.
• If an envelope is restarted before all the stages were completed, it will restart the attack from the cur-
rent envelope level.

This is a four-step ADSR envelope (Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release). The envelope contains a gain
control function, which is automatically modulated by the envelope. This enables you to control the am-
plitude of an external audio- or control signal.

A high logic signal appearing at this yellow input will start and can keep the envelope in an open-gate
state. The LED lights up while the envelope is receiving a high logic signal.
