Yes, very useful. But a common feature from all the other American Modular
Analog Manufacturers (the group consisting of S., P., W. & B. in addition
to MOTM) - I have a pair in my W. system and the upcoming VC ADSR from B.
will have it, too. What I would prefer might not be possible given the 1U
real estate, but I'd like to see an "end-of-cycle" trigger output that
could either:
A) plug into the same EG's input to use re-triggering for an LFO effect, or
B) plug into another EG (possibly chaining several together); then, with
all the CV outputs mixed together, this could create the multi-stage EG
that has been chatted about (I would greatly prefer this to the
microprocessor-based version previously discussed) - you just buy another
one of the AR EG's to get another stage. I like the multi-stage envelopes
on the Casio CZ-101 as much as I like self-retriggering EG's!
