IMO, the only ones useful enough to bother with are (in order of my
perceived importance):
*Release time
*Decay time
*Attack time
*Sustain level
I have several CV enabled envelopes and quite frankly I hardly ever mod
them anyway. I think having an elegant implementation that doesn't
require a massive panel for functions that aren't essential would be a
better physical design. Just because you *can* control something doesn't
mean you actually should or that the effort spent on implementation yields
useful performance results in the end. Just my opinion.
