ABSTRACT:
A synthesizer type electronic musical instrument in which a volume envelope imparted to a tone signal decays with a decay time after release of a key. In such an electronic musical instrument, the decay time of the volume envelope is caused to vary according to the note of the key being actuated. As a decay time controlling signal, a pitch determining voltage signal is applied to a control voltage generator for a voltage-controlled amplifier, or is adapted to control a control voltage from the control voltage generator so that the control voltage may be of a waveform having a decay time which depends on the magnitude of the pitch determining voltage signal.
