... and there should be more. There's a schmitt trigger in front of the
pulse shaper, to sharpen up sync signals with not so steeply rising
edges. If you want the LFO to be synced to an envelope follower,
this should work as well. The sync input just looks if the input goes
above some threshold voltage, and every time it does, it fires an internal
short trigger. (I have not tried it with a slow envelope myself, but
it should work - I'm sure someone will try it to confirm or not.)
