ENVELOPE

The ENVELOPE command is used to define the volume of a sound over time, or its envelope. In simpler terms, it allows you to create richer and more complex sound effects, by defining the initial phase in which the sound rapidly increases in volume, the phase in which the sound decreases in volume, the final phase in which the sound fades away until it disappears. The ENVELOPE command uses internal tone generators to create these effects.

This command simulates different musical instruments, such as pianos, drums, sound effects, and more. It creates more complex and dynamic melodies and harmonies, and it can be used to create sound effects for games, such as explosions, gunshots, or ambient sounds.
