"attack".
As in, "attack the note directly and with emphasis" or "when we look
at a spectrograph of the sound, we see that there is a lot of harmonic
activity during the note's attack." If you wanted you could say
"onset" (to calque directly from German, Danish, etc) but the term
that everybody uses is "attack". Compare with "release" which would be
the opposite - how all sorts of microscopically small details of
playing are handled right at the end of the note.
