This is definitely not true. An exponential VCA is only required to realize a volume change by a linear voltage which fits to tje human auditory habits for loudness changes. Example: If you have a VCA mixing console. And you use linear faders, which provide the Cv for the VCAs; you will have to use expVCAs to realize the same you would have with so called logarithmic faders. But for loudness changes which are similar to e.g. a natural instrument you do not require a exp. VCA necessarily! Especially the compressed sound, that we are used in todays popular music, tends much more to a sound, that should be realized with linear VCAs. Or in simple words: "If you want it sound real fat, then use linear VCAs" Florian
