200e

hm if that 266e function is reducing the voltage range it's a bug. subject
to questions of course like is it reproduced on other units? is the same
effect for all input voltages? etc.  (but look on the bright side, it's
microtonal)

cause yeah, the idea is that you can indeed use the bottom section for S+H,
as in the 266 of old, with additional constrained uncertainty.

you're right about the 250e not having a pulsed S+H... i think it is an
interesting feature idea to toggle a field in strobe mode that would fix the
voltage of a stage when you strobe to it.

though, what happens now when you advance to a new 250e stage with
interpolation and external sampling? i don't have one in front of me.

i also think there are other ways of achieving glissandos, btw... most
easily with a 255 section.
