Braking Options explained
#11

In the same vein of better understanding, a further couple of remarks.

While "Attack" and "Decay" are terms that have useful meaning in certain fields, modulation of vehicle braking is not foremost amongst these. Making their use here counter-intuitive for plebs such as myself, perhaps for others as well.

So in place of "ATTACK", substitute "Application:  Rate of."  In our braking analogy, think about this user-adjustable rate as a spectrum running from the equivalent of a "Hard Jab" at the high end, down to "Gentle Squeeze" at the low end.

In Place of "DECAY", substitute "Release:  Rate of."  Again, in terms of our braking analogy, think about this user-adjustable rate as a spectrum running from the equivalent of "Side-stepping off pedal" at the high end, down to "Slow gentle feathering" at the low end
