You can synchronize the envelopes to the tempo of your host application. This allows you to set envelope times that relate to musical time intervals, regardless of any tempo changes.
Procedure
-
Activate Sync to Host Tempo
to activate sync mode for the envelope.
A grid spaced in fractions of beats is displayed in the graphical envelope editor.
-
To set the resolution of the grid, select a note value from the pop-up menu to the right of the Sync button. You can also select triplet or dotted note values.
Note
-
Envelope nodes that do not exactly match a note value display the closest note value.
-
Nodes that match a note value exactly are indicated by an unfilled square icon. This is useful if you switch the grid between triplets and normal note values, for example. The triplet nodes still indicate that they match a note value, even if the grid shows normal note values.
-
You can also enter note values and triplets manually in the value field.
Note
The Time field of a node displays times in fractions of beats. The fraction is always reduced to the smallest possible value. 2/16 is displayed as 1/8, for example.
