THE C.M.S. 9008 TRIPLE ENVELOPE GENERATOR MODULE FEATURES HIGH SPEED FET SWITCHING CIRCUITRY TO PRODUCE EXTREMELY FAST RESPONSE TIMES TO FACILITATE PERCUSSIVE ENVELOPES FOUND IN NATURE. UNFORTUNATELY, MANY SYNTHESIZER MANUFACTURERS HAVE UNDERESTIMATED THE IMPORTANCE HIGH SPEED ENVELOPES HAVE IN DEFINING THE SOUND OF THE INSTRUMENT. AT C.M.S. EXTENSIVE HANDS ON RESEARCH HAS RESULTED IN A VERY FAST, RELIABLE ENVELOPE MODULE.

THERE ARE 2 A.D.S.R. GENERATORS AND ONE A.R. GENERATOR. EACH A.D.S.R. FEATURES A RANGE SWITCH EXTENDING THE RELEASE TIMES X2. BOTH A.D.S.R. GENERATORS ARE PROVIDED WITH INVERTED OUTPUTS. ALL GENERATORS FEATURE LED MONITORS AND MANUAL TRIGGERING PUSH-BUTTONS. THE NEWLY UPDATED AR GENERATOR FEATURES AN EXTENDED ATTACK AND RELEASE TIME RANGE.

SIMPLE, ATTRACTIVE FRONT PANEL FACILITATES EASY COMPREHENSION OF FUNCTIONS. STURDY BLACK ANODIZED CONSTRUCTION, SUB-MODULAR DESIGN FOR EASY SERVICE. HIGH QUALITY COMPONENTS ASSURE DECADES OF RELIABLE SERVICE.
