That's right. But if you think about it - if playing a guitar through
that plugin you might want to use the release value for controlling
how long time after the note end was detected the next note will
trigger the attack envelope from zero? I can easily imagine a song
where you may want to play snappy 16 note chords (like a funky thing)
with normal guitar string attack and also be able to fade in a chord
now and then with a slower attack envelope. With the right "release"
setting you actually can play that part; just stay silent for at least
two 16 notes before throwing in the chord you want to swell. Ahhh..
that would be a lovely plugin!!! :-)  Especially if you can set it to
relate to the host tempo (time values in synced musical time or in
absolute time)
