Any insight on the circuitry behaviour/relationship of Decay and "Release" on the Model D?

Hi,

I love playing the ADS envelope on my Model D and would like to recreate that in my software synth (Zebra2 and/or ZebraHZ) but I found that simply linking decay and release 1:1 does not reproduce Model D’s behaviour.

I made a desperate attempt to ask the digital doofus AI, and it said during release phase the capacitor is emptied roughly 2-2.5 times faster than decay - but AI is more often wrong than right in my experience so that could be nonsense.

There also is some, but limited, control in Zebra to shape the envelope curve, e.g giving it a steeper or flatter exponential curve, so I wonder how the Model D behaves in that regard.

There’s a graphic in the manual that indicates that decay and release are linked at a 1:1 ratio but as said, doing that in Zebra does not result in the same sonic behaviour.

I’m not desperate to get it working in my soft synth but A) it would be nice and B) now I really want to know what’s and how things are happening in the circuitry when Decay switch is on.
