Melody / Help / Modulation / Env Follower
Env Follower
Envelope follower — a modulation SOURCE derived from a signal (the sidechain / rumble primitive,). It rectifies its audio input and tracks the amplitude with a fast Attack / slow Release, emitting a unipolar CV. Wire its output into another node's modulation port — the keystone is the SIDECHAIN DUCK: patch a kick in, its output into a sub/pad's Gain at NEGATIVE depth, and the sub pumps in time with the kick. Melody-owned (env-follower-rt), the DSP a rectify + asymmetric one-pole in Rust.
