[Rwp] Creating Envelopes Using The Keyboard

[Chris Smart]

Chris, the term envelope is common in terms of audio. I'm very 
surprised you haven't encountered it in all your ProTools and Logic reading.
The name envelope comes from how this looks visually. Justin did a 
great job explaining it. Did you do any graphing in high school, 
maybe elementary school math class? Time is on the X axis and 
something like volume is on the Y axis.
