Re: news from doepfer about the bit cruncher module.

2004-01-12 by shm1400

I, for one, would be very interested in a multiple envelope module.  
I tend to use a lot of envelopes in my patches, and many of them 
could easily be simple AD or AR envelopes.  If a module had two or 
three of these in, say, an 8hp space it would be very helpful.
(However, I often seem to be in the minority in these things, so 
maybe it would not be a popular module.)
