Well, the faster/slower times apply to BOTH extremes.

Increasing C9 allows longer Releases, but the minimum Attack is proportionally ∗longer∗.

I found that 6.8uf seemed to be the ideal value, but couldn't find any low-leakage non-polars in
the correct voltage (needs to be 25V or better).

I have several folks that have "stock" 3.3uf caps in 2 EGs and 10uf in 2 other ones for like 25
sec. Releases. But the price you pay is a very narrow panel control range for "snappy" Attacks.

The other solution: use a MOTM-820 as an AR envelope. You can get 'snappy' Attack (defined as
<1ms) and Release times approaching 1 ∗minute∗.
