#79 Multiple ENVs in one env editor window

[friedolino]

I would like to be able to edit multiple envelopes in one env editor window.

I see two use cases for it:
1. Amp ENVs of multiple voices
2. Amp,Filter,Pitch... Envs of a single voice

I agree that this would be a very valuable feature in terms of transferring levels and syncing up times, but I'm having a difficult time visualizing both

• how the user goes from seeing envelope A to seeing envelope B and A. (is there some copy/paste/ghost options? what sequence of clicks is expected? etc?)
• how the user uses this combined view to transfer information from one envelope to the other (is there switching involved? is it just a strict overlay? is there snapping involved? etc?)

use case 1 could be accessible from the voice list. three buttons to access the multiple-voice-ENV for amp, freq and filter. Inside the env editor i think of a layer list like in gimp where a voice can be selected and checkboxes for making them visible and editable.

use case 2 could be the standard for env editing inside a synth/voice. If you click the E- Button of an ENV the env editor opens with only this ENV visible. Same mechanism to make others visible / editable as in case 1.

For copy-paste you select envelope A, copy, select envelope B, paste.
Snapping should be optional for x and y axis.

My own use case is to recreate the measured envelopes of the harmoncs of recorded sounds. For example of an rhodes:

While it is possible right now it would be much less clicking with the demanded feature.
