Or the *amount* of envelope modulation to Cutoff Frequency. I find myself rarely using VC envelopes when I play manually, but I often use VC on the Decay for sequencer lines. Some Random S&H on Decay does *really* make your sequences more alive. With the MOTM system, you can emulate it like this: Set the Decay on your (fixed) ADSR to a value that is about the shortest variation that you want for the sequencer line. Run the ADSR output thru the VCLAG, with attack time of the VCLAG very short, and with S&H modulating the decay time of the VCLAG. Right, you need two modules for this, and it's a workaround, but it has the advantage that you can really set a hard limit for the fastest decay time that way. JH.
