On the EMX ive got a lil more punch/click than I'd like when a certain synth pad is triggered. The EG seems to start right at the top of a peak, so I was wondering if using an effect or modulation could possibly lengthen the attack time and soften the sound up - so far ive found none?
I like how the EG Int on the filter sounds so I'm hoping to not have to tweak that.
Thanks.
Workaround to give my synth pad a longer attack?

if you use the modulation section
set the modulation type to single shot (thats the bottom one, that is liek a slope), then set the depth to a negative value (maybe about half way) and then set the speed to what ever gentle attack you want.
It kind of goes from a gentle attack to a really long fade in, so tweaking the depth (for the starting volume) and the speed (for the rate of the fade in) will get you what your after.
If you allready have modulation on the pad, im afraid your only other option is to motion sequence the attack manually using the volume dial (thats pretty rough going though).
maybe there are some other work around, but thats what i do.

Aint no thing like a chicken wing.....
Ok man thanks! I do already have some mod on it, but i was just reading more on that user-made software called electribulator, and he said he just updated it to allow multiple modulators while not having to sacrifice the mono-phony with 5 synth parts (originally the software converted all 5 synths to a single polophonic synth - and offered 3 modulators).
So the info you gave me will come in very handy, thank you very much sir!
