> Why not simply Gate as CV for the A-171

that's what i thought, but there are two problems: cv input increases the speed of the slew not the time (weird), and even inverting the gate doesn't work, because when the gate switches on, the slew gets increased before the voltage starts to change, i.e. you only have minimum slew time when the gate is at 0v, when a key is not pressed. as soon as a key is pressed, you have a the longer slew.

i'm off to england tomorrow, so i'll not be able to test your patch till monday. i'll report back :)
