Poly Vs. Mono gate
Posted: Mon Oct 15, 2018 1:48 pm
Hi,
Please see attached image. In it I have two similar channels:
A. Poly Oscilator --> Combiner --> ADSR
B. Poly Oscilator --> ADSR --> combiner
Both receiving their 'frequency' parameter from a 'midi to poly' module.
The 'A' setup does not 'trigger' the ADSR (as it is not connected to a GATE or TRIGGER) so when a key is pressed, nothing really happens, unless the 'Sustain' and 'envelope' are none zero.
The 'B' setup triggers the ADSR even though no GATE or TRIGGER is attached.
Why is it so ?
