Fast Envelope
Fast Envelopes in Syntheiszer - Schnelle Hüllkurven in Syntheiszern
Fastest Envelope Generators
basics behind really fast envelopes could be: exponential VCAs and different slopes in the ENV stages - my definition for fast envelopes is: it's around 1msecs
- Moog Modular , Minimoog, etc. (to my ears one of the nicest and ultrafast ZAPPing Envs ever made, maybe because of it's behaviour from max. level to sustain.. somekind of "hold" and fall sounding very snappy!)
- a new very very fast Envelope Machine is here: The Cwejman S1 from Sweden.
it has very scalable fast envs with 0.5ms response time. sorry, this one kicks! should kick of almost any other analogue synth I know atm.
- SH-series Rolands with nice envelopes, too.. but note: those AR ENVs of ARP or SH5 and other models never sound "fast" for other reasons.. if you want it snappy, you need at least AD or more..
- Andromeda A6 set to ultra fast in the "engine optimizer"
- Analogue Systems Spawn (why? = VCA exp, the ENVs themselves are not really "fast"..)
- Technosaurus Modular System provides very nice snappy envelopes!
- Clavias Synthesizers are quite fast, but it sounds "digital fastness" (same for a6)
- quite nice: Waldorf Q / µQ Envelopes.. same thing about digital envs, you can still hear it is different.. but not bad..
- same for access virus series..
- not on top of everything but interesting are those env's in Yamahas FM synthesizers, especially TG and DX series..

but do not take this too serious, the jx10 1ms? I did not have the impression of ultra-fastness on the jx8p, jx10 ;)
