How about this: one rise pot and one fall pot (both initial times) and one
reversing attenuator for a CV input as well as two unattenuated CV inputs
(for rise and fall times of course). This is the basic layout of (one half
of) the Serge DSG when used as a VC lag processor. My thought was the MOTM
module might benefit from some additional front panel features as Dave
Bradley had mentioned in his reference to a "studley" VC lag processor.
My continuing references to the reversing attenuator for the VC Lag module
are due to my reliance on that pot on the DSG -- just swinging it from about
the 1 O'clock to 11 O'clock positions can dramatically change the personality
of a patch and the direction one takes as a result. Of course one could have
a separate reversing attenuator and patch it in to see if it is useful in
that particular circumstance, and then unpatch it and patch in the proper CV
(positive or negative) and use it in another place. In my experience, this
would be one of the most advantageous places for a reversing attenuator.
