Just one idea:

Modulation modules like adsr and lfo etc. tend to make our music
boring, because of the simplicty and robotic behaviour of these
modules, compared to a 12 violin string section eg.
They can do slow/fast attack all kinds pf vibrato etc. etc.

Do I need adsr and lfo modules ?

Do I want to follow the "keyboard approach"?

Hit the key, trigger, envelope starts.

Music other then that of keyboard instrumenst works differnt.
It is more a "flow" then a trigger.

Wouldn't it be better to take these modulation voltages from
a DAC/computer arrangement. Is Midi ready to handle this
amount of data? At the requiered speed? 7-bit only?

Can sequencer programs handle this in a comfortable manner?

Are there midi2cv boxes that offer more resolution?
Can any tricks be played?

m.c.
