*>>"Just completely get away from the concept of AR, ASDR, DASR, etc, etc. Each 1U module would have 4 knobs. Time 1, Level 1, Time 2, Level 2. Any time or level could be set for each stage of the envelope. You determine by knob settings whether the first stage is attack or delay. Example: Time 4 level 10 is a medium speed attack. Time 4 level 0 is a time delay and maybe stage 2 becomes the attack. If you want a simple AR, use one, turn the knobs. The key to this approach would be some kind of "end" output as suggested by others that could be used to trigger another "2-stage EG." "* This reminds me of sort of one-half of a TX-81Z envelope generator. My thoughts are-it would be cool to have an envelope generator that's conceptually different from an ADSR, since we already have an ADSR. So the "Time/Level, Time/Level" idea is cool on those grounds. It's also cool to make the next MOTM EG voltage-controllable, since that feature hasn't been implemented yet. In order _not_ to make it a 4u panel, the daisy-chain ideas being discussed are a nice alternative-keep it simple & inexpensive, and buy as many as you need and chain them together. Man, I like so many of the envelope generator ideas that have been thrown around in the past 24 hours, I don't even know which to back! At some point when we're all exhausted, we probably ought to narrow the ideas down to four composites with mock-ups and step back and take a look at them, see who's most excited about what features. Unfortunately, estimated prices would be helpful, too, and that is probably hard to estimate accurately.
