ADSR envelopes are normally exponential. One would need a current source
(instead of the simple R/C circuit) to obtain linear slopes. The voltage
controlled version of the ADSR A-141 can be modified to obtain more linear
slopes by overdriving (clipping) the OTA that deliveres the charge/discharge
current for the capacitor. For the standard ADSR A-140 that's not possible.
