This has come up before so you might check the archives for more details.
Basically, a lag processor is a very flexible control device that allows you to
modify the rate of change from one voltage to another. The classic usage is as a
portamento on a keyboard (rise time = fall time, slope exponential or linear
depending on the circuit). However, this just scratches the surface of such a
versatile module. Here are a few more examples:

- Simple AR EG
- Self-triggering "pulser" with variable rise and fall times
- Low pass filter, of sorts

There are lots of uses for this module. I plan to get more than one, eventually.
