[sdiy] What's a good velocity # for note loud vs soft?

[Paul Burns]

Even the SH-101 has a gate / env switch ... nothing to do with legato

What does this mean? Do you mean it's like a gate? That is, only sustain?

If so, then it'd be missing release, this means it's different than
legato: legato does not suddenly make release time zero.
For one thing, just looking at the latest addition sitting here next
to me, the korg polysix has a gate/env switch for the VCA.

Cheers,
D.
