An extension to the 7-segment GEN envelope example providing retrigger and consistent exponential shaping of each segment slope across different duration values. The implementation also provides pitch and velocity scaling of ADSR duration, and support for fast notes (gate-on events in the same sample cycle as the gate-off events, as well as gate-on events without gate-off events since the previous gate-on event).

For retrigger, the implementation provides a hidden 5-millisecond release stage upon any gate-on event if it is received when the envelop is currently generating a significant output.

Additional parameters provide pitch and velocity scaling of duration, in addition to the velocity curve and scaling as provided in the Max 6.0 examples folder.

On the site page is also a design for what could be an optimal ADSR envelope in gen~, with the same functionality as for the provided example.
