Oh yeah, he doesn't care for Doepfer as well:

The product lines matching most closely the alternative version of
"best" The beastly Serge and
the vile Doepfer. Man, you can patch things out of those dreadful

(At least Doepfer offer a VC ADSR as well as
other envelopes that actually work per expected
envelope behaviour as exhibited over the last
30 or so years...)


In my opinion, keep Doepfer exactly the way it is...
That's all I have to say on this; it speaks for
itself. Just please retain the voltage addressing
of stages on the touch keyboard/sequencer :-D
