All,

I *may* have found a mod which will allow retriggerng of the Model 10,
meaning it will begin another cycle before completion of the current
one.  This violates the laws of attack/decay envelopes but what the
hell, it's a nice option and admittedly, the one thing that at times
could be limiting for some wth this module.

It's too early to tell the full ramification of these changes, and
there's  good possibility I will not be able to look further into it
until after the Namm show.  But so far the mod I've put into play does the job.  It's causing one hick-up somewhere lese in the circuit and that's what i need to investigate.

The change will require an additional resistor, but may as well
require a couple of transistors and their associated interface
resistors be added to the board as well.  Too early to tell.

Currently we're (very) low on Model 10 PCBs and running short of
faceplates, so it seems that if this mod takes hold factory units shipped from now on would in fact be Model 10 Mark II, which would add an additional switch to take this in and out of the circuit (I think that would be more functional as there is a use for it not retriggering, as it ill operate as a divide by N divider, which has it's uses.

More when I am able,
