Mapping velocity to attack is an essential element in probably 90% of the
patches I make... anyway, on synths that allow it and on the sampler. It's
absolutely ∗essential∗ for realistic percussive patches! And if your
controller is sensitive to aftertouch or release velocity, you'll need a
VCEG to take advantage of these. It seems to be a very basic module to me,
and it fairly blows my mind that there are synthesists who would find these
to be inutile in practice!
