Is there a filter that will let me slow down the attack of a sound?
Specifically, I purchased Sopranotron and I would like to soften the attack of some of the choir sounds.
Thanks.

dunno a specific one, but you may search for terms like transient design/shaping
A normal generic compressor should do the trick. Have you tried that approach yet?
Can Filtatron's Filter ENV be triggered by a MIDI note?
You might be able to use something like Thumbjam to trigger the notes and assign the X Axis to volume or expression (presuming Soprantron will respond to those).
Sorry, I don't know how to adjust a compressor's settings to alter the attack of a sound.
You could insert ivcs3 envelope as Au, trigger it via midi and turn the attack up,
Make sure the off release is on manual, all the way up , so it doesn't loop.
Reading this thread I realized once again: I hang out here because I really dig synthesizers, I don't know enough about synthesis, and that partly aside I just really dig smart people
Nerds the lot of them. We only keep them around to keep the lightbulbs changed etc.
Or email sopranotron people and ask them to kindly add an ADSR in next update?
Set the attack to zero, with a very low threshold and a very high ratio, and then adjust the release. However this will never completely remove the attack of the sound like an ADSR envelope would.
You need an envelope following filter. There's one in Tonstack called "All's Swell" which is designed to mimick a volume pedal to create swells from strummed guitar. It works pretty well if you play slowly.
Forget the compression and the filter and just use the envelope.
That's exactly what you want.
I just tested the Tonestack solution using the Sopranotron samples in M3000 and it only works if you don't play legato. If you trigger one note while the other is still playing the envelope follower won't have enough time to react (or the difference in volume is not great enough to trigger the effect). If you play the notes separately then it works pretty well, but if you need legato then you would be better off resampling the sounds into Cubasis and playing them from the Minisampler which does let you control the attack per-note.
Anyone can change a lightbulb, though the number of people it takes varies by type1. The nerds are kept round to design lightbulbs, and then berate for not making a lightbulb that needn't be changed.

I was slow to follow. Thanks for the explanation. :-)
Since I'm not familiar with the source material, the compressor might not be the best solution, but it's always good to be familiar with different methods of achieving similar results. This will allow you to confidently choose the best tool with when something like this arises; since the source will likely be different each time. Or, you might be working with somebody else's studio, and they may not have a particular tool on hand.
