Synth Snackables: Legowelt - Peak: fun with envelopes // Novation
“The cool thing about the Peak is that you can assign both envelope generators” – Legowelt
Legowelt explains that negative envelope depth is essentially like “inverting” the envelope. Showing how you can use them to create “springy” effects that sound organic. He assigns both a positive and negative mod envelope depth to the analogue filter – creating an eight-point filter envelope that sounds joyful yet eclectic as they both battle for control.
“You can go really deep with it.” Using the envelope generator menu, Legowelt loops individual envelopes, controls the repeat and hold time to expand functions of the generators beyond ADSR - giving him more fluid and detailed control of filter envelope movement. By experimenting, playing and assigning these to other parameters Legowelt unlocks the capabilities of Peak.
