This assumes a conventional ADSR where the sustain continues at the same level as the decay, till the release ramps to 0. The most common kind of envelope generator has four stages: attack, decay, sustain, and release (ADSR). Set the attack and decay levels of the ADSR. Attack is the time taken for initial run-up of level from nil to peak, beginning when the key is pressed. Decay is the time taken for the subsequent run down from the attack level to the designated sustain level.

In the typical synthesizer, the Attack stage begins when a key is pressed. The Attack stage usually offers control of duration that is, the amount of time it takes to ascend to a high voltage level after the key is pressed. When used to modulate a VCA’s level, this allows for everything from very sudden, abrupt note onsets to slow swells that gradually fade in from nothingness. VCAs have many applications, including audio level compression, synthesizers and amplitude modulation.

After the Attack stage has reached its end, the highest point in the envelope’s cycle, the Decay stage commences. The Decay stage also offers definable duration: in this case, the amount of time it takes to fall from this high level. By using moderate Attack and Decay times and a relatively low, one can create sounds that begin with a swelled attack: a sound that increases in volume, decreases in volume, and then settles in at a low, continuous volume.
