Interesting. I’ve had the Bass++ on my “do someday” list for a long time, though with mods. Including the separate envelopes for pitch and amplitude\* and a minimalist wave shape control, as discussed in [this thread](https://electro-music.com/forum/topic-40457.html).

I hadn’t considered exponential CV for the VCO and am not sure how useful I would find it.

I would likewise omit the master volume — an output attenuator, not something I generally want. I’d probably keep the shell volume and impact tone controls. Of course, I build Kosmo and have lots of real estate for knobs. And on PCB, so the constraints of stripboard aren’t relevant to me.

\* By the way, the Barton Analog Drum (which I’ve [built](https://lookmumnocomputer.discourse.group/t/add-noise-drum-module/6852)) has some distinct resemblances to the Bass++; it does lack the impact component and some of the controls, but it uses two envelopes.
