>>I playing around with a VC EG this weekend. My conclusion as that
controlling Attack rate and Attack level, as well as scaling the
entire envelope, via velocity, are very useful. VC control over
Decay, Sustain, or Release weren't that useful. With a fixed decay
rate, the decay time increases as the attack level increases which
seems to sound "natural", imho.<<
VC decay is also useful. One reason is that's how real percusive or plucked
string instruments work. The higher the note, the shorter the decay time.
Also, a VC EG should have a delay stage. I've always had the idea that slight
random variances in a delay stage could make those robotic sounding sequenced
midi files, sound a little more human.
