Re: AW: [Doepfer_a100] "killing" an envelopes release

Hi

> solution #2: VC switch across the Release potentiometer (e.g. A-150)
Four both solutions I suggest not to short the Release pot completely, 
but switch a smaller resistor value or a second potentiometer in 
parallel, so there is still control for a shorter release time.

Another nice possibility would be: the switch should select whether the 
release-time is determined by the decay-potentiometer or the 
release-potentiometer. I am a big fan of the envelopes used in the moog 
prodigy or polymoog, which do not know about a separate release, but 
simply have a switch that enables release or not. For monophonic synths 
it is perfect for classic sequences, for polyphonic synths it works like 
the pedal of a piano.

An envelope which provides an additional alternative release-time would 
be perfect.
