YuSynth AUTO-BEND

"This module is very useful utility module to simulate the transient frequency bend that can be heard at the onset of a note played by some instruments such as trumpets and oboes. The same effect could be achieved using an ADSR module connected to the FM input of a VCO. However, having such a dedicated module autobend modules makes it possible to reserve ADSR modules for a "poshier" use."
