Setting the Envelope Follower
Envelope Follower is a feature that extracts the envelope (or
amplitude envelope) of a waveform from the input signals,
and then lets you use that envelope as a controller for
modifying sounds. For example, by assigning a rhythm
pattern to a Part and setting the Envelope Follower of the
Part as a “Source,” the sound of other Parts are modified
accordingly. This is especially useful for automatic
“ducking,” where you want to lower the volume of other
instruments while a certain instrument sound is being
played.

bottom of the Rhythm Pattern display.
The Envelope Follower display appears.

Here, in this example, set the Curve Polarity (Polarity) to
“Bi,” the Curve Ratio (Ratio) to “-63,” and the Gain (Gain)
to “-12dB.”
For setting other parameters, touch the [EDIT] button on
the screen, and open the Envelope Follower Setting
display.
When you want to change the Rhythm Pattern kit or the
Arpeggio Type, press the [RHYTHM PATTERN] button to go
back to the Rhythm Pattern display. The Envelope Follower
settings are retained even after the new kit or the Arpeggio
type is selected.
