That's why I said to use the regular outputs not the gate out! With a zero rise time the leading edge is fast enough to trigger the input of the other half of the USG without having to mess with an inverter for the gate! True, it isn't as steep as the gate but from looking at it

Without the inverting/bias stage this results in a gate voltage that is high 99% of the time, rather than low. John Loffink The Microtonal Synthesis Web Site http://www.microtonal-synthesis.com The Wavemakers Synthesizer Web Site http://www.wavemakers-synth.com > -----Original Me

The main problem is trying to change the clock as a gate stream to a pulse stream to avoid the sustain stage of the USG. I just took the gates from the clock or whatever into the trigger in on one part of the USG with the attack and decay set to zero. Take the output of this inpu

Here's the patch. It will take two stages of a DTG or DSG with the post 1994 GATE OUTs as opposed to the old END out, as well as a scaling processor stage. GATE to TRIG IN on first DSG stage, set Rise/Fall to short values. GATE OUT gives an inverted trigger. GATE OUT of first DSG

Actually feeding the gate into the input jack gives you an "attack/release envelope, with sustain that is present for as long as the key is depressed (so its actually an attack/sustain/release envelope). What I want is something that will allow me to get attack/release (up/down)

Anybody know of a way to turn a DSG/DTG into a true Attack/Decay EG? I don't mean what one can get by feeding a pulse/gate into the "trigger" input (the result of this is an AD envelope which unfortunately WON'T retrigger until it decays back to zero. I don't want this!!). I want
