envy is a midi-triggered volume envelope plug with added features
- 2 envelopes, for L & R channel
- 2 'hit me' buttons to start each envelope independantly
- control both envelopes from one 'hit me' if required
- run both L & R channels through one envelope if required
- 'hit me' can be assigned to any midi key and can be latched if required
- either or both channels can be inverted so volume decreases instead of increases

Controls
Left channel controls are on the left, Right channel controls are on the right. Logic rulez!

Hit Me - this button is best assigned to a midi keyboard key, but can be mouse operated or automated too. Hit the key to trigger the envelope.

hot key - this is the key reference number (0-127) that will trigger the 'hit me' button from your midi keyboard. select using the drop down arrow. To find out the ref number of any midi key on your keyboard, press it and the ref number will show next to the 'playing..' text area

latch (on / off)
- If latch is off, envelope is only activated whilst the key is held and returns to previous state when the key is released.
- If latch is on, pressing Hit Me will latch on, even when key is released. It will not change until the key is hit a second time

invert (on / off)
- off: audio will be muted by default and holding the key down will raise volume according to envelope
- on: audio will play by default and holding the key down will decrease volume according to envelope

single hit me - select this to control both envelopes from the left hit me button

single env - select this to have both L & R channels controlled by the left envelope

in both single hit me & single env are selected, the plug-in remains in stereo and you can still invert the Right channel

a,d,s,r - attack, decay, sustain, release stages of the envelope

midi learn - this works for all controls, not just the 'hit me' button. press the 'learn' toggle, (learning.. will appear on the GUI) then tweak any VST GUI control, then tweak any controller knob/slider/button. 'learning...' will disappear and the midi controller will now operate the VST control
