Hi Dave,

and thank you very much for all your interesting comments !

Sure, you are right ! But sometimes, when I make a patch, I would
have appreciate to have some other vca and adsr. A simple exemple that
need 3 adsr and 2 vca of them. Note that this is not a multi-layered
patch  :

lfo -- vca -- vco -- vcf -- vca --> out
        |             |      |
       adsr         adsr   adsr

I'm not sure to understand your flow chart. Is it like that :

vco -- vcf -- comb

Your very good to describe modules ! I think that I will buy one as soon
as possible.
