#### <a name="lpg"></a> LPG

LPG is a "low-pass gate", where an envelope generator, low-pass filter (LPF) and amplifier (VCA) are combined into a single sound-shaping unit. It lends itself to percussive or plucked sounds, though longer notes are possible.
LPG's envelope is a version of <a href="#vish">VISH</a>, with simplified controls. On LPG, the single RESPONSE control (taking a unipolar 0-10V CV at RESP) sets the length and basic shape of the envelope (turning up RESPONSE is equivalent to turning up each of MIN GATE, RISE time and FALL time, proportionally, on VISH). Enabling LONG rescales the knob for longer envelopes. The RISE and FALL knobs set the shapes (curves) of the rising and falling envelope segments, as on VISH. The envelope is triggered whenever LPG receives a rising edge at the TRIG input.
