Yep, that must be the one.  They really are more useful when LEDs are 
added to them, don't you think?  But what I don't understand is, why 
would a purveyor of a *modern* ADSR not have learned from Bob Moog's 
past "mistake?"  It's not like LEDs are expensive or take up 
appreciable space. As I see it, not to put a visual indicator on an 
ADSR today is an oversight so egregious as to border on criminal.  

And, as we are learning, LEDs can be very pretty.  :-)
