MOTM

One more silly idea-under (over?) the reversible attenuator (assuming no LED
gets in there first), you could have a switch that reverses the state of the
input gate.

That probably sounds weird and useless to some people, but just entertain
the idea for a second.

Reversing the gate will fire the AR as a note is _released_, which can be
very cool. Why would you want to fire an envelope generator on note-off?
Besides just because you _can_, there are certain physical sound generating
systems that work like this. Off the top of my head, the plectrum of a
harpsichord key plucks the string as the key is depressed, but also brushes
it again on the way back down. This is obviously a 'quieter' event that the
note-on one, but subtlety like that can breathe a lot of life into a sound,
like the little squeaks of fingers-on-strings in an acoustic guitar
performance. You don't focus on them, but you know something is missing when
they're not there.

Ah, I'm getting long-winded again. I'm definitely in the 'keep it simple'
camp, but we're all the type of people that look for possibilities.
Otherwise we wouldn't use modulars.
