I agree with VC EGs, although I think 8 stages (I'm wondering what the stages 
would be) is a bit much, at least for an analog module (remember, each pot 
adds about $10 to the module). I also recall Paul mentioning that DoMoaS 
would be a good module for multi stage envelopes in which one could define 
one's own stages and their number. BTW, why don't we just start calling 
DoMoaS "MOAS," since it will obviously be a killer, and not "the ninth or 
tenth greatest sequencer around."

Me for example!!!

I don't know. For a dedicated analog VC EG, I think the 5 stage would be 
quite impressive -- but there could be room for a uP device that could be 
configured to allow weirder envelope shapes.
