Certainly, but the point was that it doesn't need to go there... I have
received this particular question off-list several times. It is a common
misstake to think that the trigger is needed to make the oscillators to
oscillate. This is far from the fact that it may be beneficial to
synchronise the oscillators to the attack of the envelope generator.
Cheers,
