Re: Gates

Of course, you're correct. I'm using the self-triggering Quad ADSR, 
so I can send the D-Gate out to a multiple and send one back to the 
ADSR and the other to the S&H. My interest is purely academic: how is 
my ADSR peak different from an LFO? I use the two interchangeably in 
all other cases. 
LFOs go from -2.5 to +2.5v. 
Envelope gates are at +10v. 

Both these work to trigger the S&H.

Envelopes themselves go from 0v to +8v, yet these never trigger 
gates. 

Specifically: having read the manuals, I can't see anywhere where a 
gate is considered to be a shift from +ve to -ve voltage, but this 
would appear to be the case. Am I right?
