That's what I thought - maybe not that fast, though. It's enough, however,
to get clicking, which is exactly the speed you want. I haven't heard an
official measurement.

(Us synth kids... if the EG is speedy enough to "click", people complain
about the click. If the EG isn't speed enough to click, people complain
about the snappiness. I tell you... :P 

That's one of the BIG selling points of the A6, though... it can do both,
really. If you know how to program you'll do fine, and can even fudge some
A6 tricks. Not everyone knows how to program or wants to even, it's a pretty
poor choice for a "beginner's synth"...)
