Hey man, I'm with you. Maximum flexibility, within reason. I guess everybody has a different perception of what "reason" is. For me, the idea of a single CV input, normalled to A,D, and R inputs, which individually feed reversible attenuators, is exactly right. Maximum flexibility when you want it, or ease of use when that's sufficient. Add VCed delay and peak hold, and that's all I could ask. (OK, OK Barlow - an led on the output instead of the gate input geesh kwitcha whining<g>). I guess my definition of "unreasonable" would be the 8U wide microprocessor controlled zillion breakpoint drawn by hand infinite rotary encoded $400 EG. To you determined DIYers, I second Tony A's suggestion to check out JH's very nice VC DADSR design. I've been thinking of trying one after I get my sequencer going.
