How adjust Attack / Decay for analog synth sounds? (Help)

I've tried to change attack and decay for multiple stock analog sounds in Kronos and nothing seems to change the sound. (?)

I've tried changing these program sounds:

I-D057 Ducky Synth (want to slow down the attack)

I-D025 Endlessly Rising (tried to increase attack time and decrease decay so it fades out quicker)

I've paged through and found the EG1 => EG and EG2 => EG pages with envelope attack & sustain, but changing the values on those pages doesn't change the sound at all for me.

Can you please direct me to what/where to change to adjust attack/sustain for those sounds please? Thanks in advance! (I've tried searching, haven't found answers FYI.)

It's instead in the amplitude envelopes. Check and edit the values you want in the corresponding EXi tabs. Also, another way to edit such parameters on the spot is simply to play with the sliders in Tone Adjust mode.

Amp or VCF EG? These are not simple ADSR EGs. you may have to adjust the Level, Time and Curves of the segments to achieve the desired affects.

Ugh, I can actually "accomplish" some of what I want to change with the RT Karma knobs selected, but those changes can't be saved :-( And I don't know enough to go into the sub-menus to do the same thing manually.

The sliders in Tone Adjust seem to be much more limited than the RT Karma. I guess I just need to learn a lot more about how to use Kronos. Thanks for the suggestions!
