Basic processing of any CV source. For example: if used at the output of a
S/H, a lag processor would act like a portamento (as you suggested), but if
used at the input of a S/H, the module can be used to keep the step size
within a small voltage range (time dependent), but have no effect on
portamento. And as Paul said, as a (cheesy) LPF.

Or maybe. the module is bypassed when the tip voltage goes to ground, else it
stays active??? I say just one LED.

That CV Rise/Fall control is crying out for a reversing attenuator!!!!

It really is!
