Information about the Velocity Curves?

[philroyjenkins]

For anyone still looking to get a better hands on feel for each curve, a self osc filter is your friend! A simple sine wave is pretty handy for getting a feel for lots of other things too like having envelopes modulate themselves to achieve a different slope.

Very clever ideas here... The self-osc filter with velocity/pressure mod works great. But there were other ideas relating to LFO frequencies which I imagine works well too, along a different perceptual dimension.

... reminds me of a question we used to pose to beginning physics students - you are given a ball of string, a stopwatch, and a barometer. You job is to go to the top of the Empire State building and determine its height using only those things. (There is no single correct answer...)
