I think the confusion may be due to the analog envelopes behaving
quite differently than typical digital/VA envelopes, which due to
software retrigger easily. Using the Trig In (as you stated) the
DUSG will ignore pulses that occur after the initial one until it
has completed the full rise/fall cycle. You might get somewhat
better results by trying the Sig In jacks - the DUSG will "follow"
the voltage at this input, but note that the gate voltage must fall
sufficiently in order to rise again, so pot times are critical.

I believe this is occurring because (per your description) you are
patching the Vel Mod to the oscillator. Different velocities will
affect the pitch to varying degrees, in accordance with how hard you
strike the Edirol key. To avoid this, connect only the Frostwave's
CVA to one 1/Volt Octave input. The Vel Mod could be patched to a
filter cutoff, wave multiplier, NTO waveshape, etc, for timbral
variation controlled by velocity.

Hope this helps!
