Re: Interesting envelope

@Spogg / @tulamide - guys, thank you, thank you, thank you! I haven't had a chance to try it yet (early morn here in the US), but it's clear you understand the concept and know what your doing. I'm very curious how one learns the DSP code - it's quite different from C++ isn't it? Does FS have documents that teach this code?
Anyway, hopefully this will have resulted in something that others will find useful in their projects. It's a terrific tool to have an eg that can switch from a conventional ADSR to what we're calling AD(S)R; having those two separate, essentially Decay stages can create some very realistic percussion envelopes, Most drums obviously have fast attack, then followed by less fast decay, then a longer 'ringing' sound where the skin and body continue to vibrate/resonate. You really can't reproduce that behavior with any other envelope (except maybe the multistage). But this AD(S)R is much simpler and more elegant.
@Halon - I'd looked briefly at the Voyetra years ago, but upon seeing there was nothing particularly interesting about the synth's 'voice' itself I moved on, without noticing the rather unique and powerful quad Modulation Bank. Coupled with the 4-CV joystick (same as in the CAT Stick) you had something quite different from the typical analog synth. As I said in the earlier post, what I'm doing is much more like a pannable stereo pair of the Voyetra One, which never went past the prototype stage. Now with Spogg and tula's amazing work, this will be done quite soon.
Cheers to all and again, many thanks!
