This brings up a question I have about 800s.  I have plenty for now, but
all mine are the version requiring both gate and trigger for full ADSR. 
Are the ones in stock that version, or the version that was discussed on
the list that was changed to allow ADSR with only gate?

I have been thinking about this (a dangerous thing).  I do not see how full
ADSR with gate only could work very well.  I say this because I see that
gate stays high as long as ANY key is depressed.  It would seem to me that
envelopes would not be re-triggered with a gate only ADSR unless the
playing technique provided that one key contact was indeed open prior to a
second one being closed.

OTOH, I can see how this could be used as a style technique -- that the
retrigger on the envelope could be deliberately avoided or hit upon by
going in and out of a Legato playing style.

Am I missing the big picture (a frequent occurrence).

Thanks,
