As far as #2 and #3 problems, they are not of such a big concern to me. For instance on #2, I can set the sustain level lower and be sure that decay is set to 0. I noticed the problem probably by changing from one type of envelope to another and thought it strange that decay acted like attack. Somebody else seems to have noticed what I did (when sustain set to 10), the attack brings the envelope up to about 4 volts, then the decay basically decays in an upward direction (acting like attack) to the sustain level. But my main problem is #1. I will try to also use a vtrig from the Pro-2000 to see if I can solve the problem that way. If so then no need to worry about it further. But if that doesn't work I don't know what to do other than drag my Doepfer upstairs and use its envelopes. For those people who say they couldn't reproduce #1, I'm wondering whether your 800s are Rev A or Rev B. You should really see the problem when playing relatively fast and/or legato. It think the longer the release time the more obvious. Playing like this pushes the output of the envelope higher and changes your sound according to where you've patched the envelopes to. I almost get the impression that the release portion doesn't have time to drain the envelope back to 0v as it were, and the new note just builds ontop of the old one increasing the voltage. I'll let you know whether a gate + vtrig solves the problem. -Elhardt
