Amp Envelope - Attack will not go down below .5ms

Post by kristywilke »

I have the NS4 - when adjusting the AMP envelope I cannot get the attack to go below .5ms on any sample or Analog Waveform. Anyone else?

Additionally, why is there an LED next to Sound Init in the Synth Section if it never illuminates?

It is the same on my Stage 3, minimum attack in the display is .5ms. Works as it should, though, sounds correct to my ears.

This is a bug that is included on the NS4 issues/bugs list. Take care

I don' think this is a bug, as it the same behavior on the synth on my NS3 and NW2 Amp sections. It seems to be the design of the Amp algorithms Nord is using, .5ms is the minimum value in all three instruments.

Sorry, the bug reported is for the LED next to the Sound Init.
