So (to avoid my misunderstanding) the envelopes follows the same principle as a tempo synced LFO? In case no one already have the values tested and documented i can always try it out, i suppose.
It’s related in a similar way but obviously one is rate and the other is time, so an inverse relationship - but it’s clear that time based values are seq synced and the magic values are the 2^n ones
oh hang on, I know 100% for sure that the delay values are tempo synced and 99% that other time values are too - the problem with other time values is note length can be off-grid, but delay can always be accurate to the point of attack, so you have a tempo synced delayed modulation effect, it’s super cool
release wouldn’t be if the other bits aren’t - sustain is easy to connect/correct to a trig length, but the attack offset will throw the timing
when I exploited the tempo sync via a deleted envelope I was using it either as a delayed step change A0 D0 Smax Dmax or as an impulse AD type input so A0 S0 and D to taste
It certainly is a useful feature to have. Other synths have it. For instance the Hydrasynth allows you to turn it on or off for both envelopes and LFOs, with the envelopes being DAHDR all parameters relatable to BPM. ADDED: You can also set the Delay effect on the HS to use BPM too if you want.
I’ve already stated that the delay value IS synced to tempo and how that is rhythmically/musically useful in a sound modulation context - so only the delay stage of the envelope is synced
