Subject: RE: VC EGs

From: "Crawley, Eric" <esc@...>
Date: 2000-01-31

The VC EGs that I've seen allow for a voltage to be applied to each one of
the stages or knobs. So, you usually end up with double the number of
knobs, one for the initial value, and one to attenuate the CV. For a VC
DADSR, we would be looking at 10 knobs, unless Paul has some clever ideas
about distributing the incoming VC. I think it would be very rare that you
would need to control more than a few stages of a DADSR in one patch, so
that might save some knobs and jacks....

An envolope follower is a completely different beast that is usually put
together with a preamp. The ∗output∗ of an envelope follower can usually go
to a DADSR though.
