Would this be a possible to implement? Like the user LFO, you could make it a drop-down window, so it would be optional instead of intrusive. Usually i don't need this, but there are so many options in Zebra's ADSR envelopes, a visual representation would be very useful. Just like the dropdown user LFO curves/steps. Maybe copy this feature to the ADSR?
*edit* ok i'm an idiot, i completely missed the "MSEG" section. Should have checked the manual more careful before spouting my "noob" question here.
Sorry about this!

Well, still a fair enough question
I always wanted to come up with something visual, but somehow never found the right concept/design for it. It's in the back of my mind, but I can't promise anything anytime soon...
Oh yes, the MSEGs will do just fine for most needs (whenever simple Velocity is enough, scaling times and values individually by velocity/keyfollow is possible inb the normal envelope section only)

Thanks a lot for answering my question so fast, they weren't lying about the great support!
Got my serial nr. yesterday. Havin' a blast so far! I'm building Minimoog-like patches like it's all i've ever done

See, now that's why I haven't gotten Z2 yet Urs. I need to get some actual work done, and I'm afraid I'd just be completely taken over by it. Damn you and your wicked cool explosive sonic ear candy creation stuffs!!!

Don't forget this ... It is a two edged sword , because if you make everything a graphic ediable envelope then it can bog you down. For instance , even with copy /paste , You might have to go and change the envelope in many places if you start tweaking , especially if there are several sound sources.
The upside is detailed control, the downside is always complexity.

Good point, maybe not make it editable but just visual? So at least you have an idea of what your envelope looks like when you are tweaking the knobs. But again, that's where the msegs come in handycontrary wrote:Don't forget this ... It is a two edged sword , because if you make everything a graphic ediable envelope then it can bog you down.

I'm getting headaches trying to think of the possible sounds i can make with Zebra, and I can't imagine ever having to buy another VST. This is the best investment i ever made, even if i never make a tune with it, just the sheer fun of creaking out good sounding patches is worth the admission.
