I'm playing some more with Envelopes on CV16 and there are a couple of things that aren't clear to me:

Those lengths depend on modulator settings. A>S stays in the sustain phase until the release phase is explicitly started or the envelope is restarted. Right?

That having said:
I really like the envelopes and they are good enough for quite a lot of my usecases. However sometimes I want plain ordinary gates. Is there something like autogate for CV16? Preferably like on track Y say something "take the note values from track X and create gates with a rising/falling edge on note start and create the corresponding falling/rising edge after notelength * 0.5 ticks".

Or would that be too complicated?
(I'm happy to repeat that in the feature request section  )

Kind regards,
Michael
