The fact that it runs of 5 volt is one thing, all IO is still limited to 3.3v which makes stuff more complex. :-( True. it has it's own 3.3V rail, so don't have to worry about making that. So it's a matter of a rescaling opamp for each output and input. Two MCP6004's should do the trick. I'll share the schematic once I've been able to test it! |

I do find it amusing that the longest thread on this forum is what we would wish for, not dealing with what we've already got. the human condition in a nutshell,  |

That way I don't need to realize that it's basically me who is the biggest limiting factor in coming up with new sounds and the modular. (You can replace I by we, if you're brave enough)

Really not, this is no fishing for approval just venting my own crippling self doubt. GAS is IMO always the indicator of an underlying problem. I don't practice enough guitar, surely buying a new amp/pedal/guitar will solve the issue... |

... a maths module would be nice though, i guess. I don't know sometimes you lust after a module without ever having touched it before but your instinct tells you that it will be nice, for example keurslagerkurt 's great divide, I knew it would be great without having used anything like it before. Other modules like the dAEband were more a leap of faith; this will be useful at some point and I will even understand it. Maths is basically both of these feelings. Better stop lusting do a bit more patching, there are still modules that need waaaaaaaay more exploring Algodrone, and Cirrus looking at you... and dAEband of course. |

I love the Great Divide too, but really don't understand what it does; I just use it! |

I got the point of being careful about GAS (I used to own around 100 effects pedals when bass was my main instruments). But here I don't consider it as the same problem. We're speaking of modules that are not been in development as far as we know. If they're in development it take months/year to become available on the market and even after it takes 3 months (or even more most of the time) to get it shipped. So in my mind this can't be called GAS as we're not in any capacity of inquire anything anytime soon. We're just interested in the development of the AE standard as a hole. We just want more and more and still a bit more...
... Ok might be reaaaally closed to GAS 😜.
Anyway, to get back to the complexe sequencer ; probability over step to be played would be great.

Lot of talk of maths here - while it's a great module, the core of it, and bit I'd personally much rather see in AE format is the Serge USG.
I'd love a single (or dual) USG as I've said earlier in this thread - it's one of the all time great multi-purpose modules imo.

You don't have that in your rack? Try duddex bernouilli gate firmware that provide weighted randomness, set it between the gate output of your sequencer and the input of your envelope and Bob's your uncle (see what I did there? #synthnerds) |

I need more grains for this as it's already in use. All point been to have all in one module. I'm doing it with envelope, trigger and logic... However, it's still not per steps. Space is limited, one module instead of 3-4 modules opened opportunity in a live performance case.

I have the luxury of being able to turn any channel on my AEclidian module to weighed random gate, so I can even build Euclidian sequences with randomized steps and/or of variable number of steps.

I'd assume it's only gates or triggers, so you need something else for pitch (multiple module). I basically have done the same with the topograph with random CV with sample and hold in its fill inputs. So back to multiple sequencer.. Yep there are plenty of way to get this but none in one module: a complexe sequencer...

It's interesting really, largely speaking I don't find myself overly GAS-orientated, it's pretty much a one-in-one-out situation for me, I like to know my synths pretty well. However, the AE I view as something different - I'm very very happy to support the development of the system for a lot of reasons! Because prices are generally so cheap (I mean seriously, the BIOT at £17.50 is ridiculous) I'm more than happy to spend on the AE and indulge the GAS, because every module opens up every other module a little bit more. Sure, I could spend £50 on a Pocket Operator and have a fun new drum machine - but then I could spend the same £50 on maybe two modules that will add a little more to my system, giving me new patch points, and perhaps most importantly support new independent creators! I wanted to try eurorack for years, but a pretty huge AE system has been far, far cheaper than even a small eurorack system - so I'm more than happy to indulge the GAS for inexpensive modules! |

Chorus module or modules you can link to make a super chorus. Actually, a Bucket Brigade module would be awesome. There's so much you can do with that ! Quoting myself but after having geeked out on guitar pedals, I'd really love to be able to experiment with a BBD that can be set to an extremely short time ! That can allow us to make our own chorus/vibrato/flanger/etc., with as much modulation as we want ! |

Speaking of Chorus, vibrato and flanger, i'd like to see more effects modules. Especially Reverb and distortions. The MULTIFX is a great modules, and do wonders, but it's a bit too much of a price if you want to have multiple for more tracks within a patch.

There is the TBD.... rather pricey again for multiples as you say, but what I have wondered is if the lofi delay can be modded to have an CV input so could put an LFO on the delay time..... |

On my side, I was thinking that it could be cool to have more "electro acoustic" modulators.
Like this you could design a complete rack dedicated to interact with sounds around you. Some examples of a workstation based around this idea :
Existing modules :
- Power
- Delay
- Multi Fx
- Reverb
- 4I/O
Wished modules : - Resonator
- Built in mic
- Built in contact mic
- Frequency shifter
That's an idea |

I've ordered the TBD, but it's in the same pricerange as the MULTIFX as you said, I haven't check much of what it is capable of, but hat was not the main purpose when I ordered it I do think the AEM can give us some small modules on a low side budget that can do wonders, and that's why most of us got into AEM rather than Eurorack. Third party producer, hear me out, I need reverbs and effects!!! |

That's an idea I'm very pro sound-mangling and electroacoustics! More options for processing external audio (I like to use tapes) would be great. Surprised actually that no-one has yet done a version of the Music Thing Mikrophonie, as it seems to be a popular cheap / easy first DIY build for a lot of people in Eurorack. Guess you would probably want a resonator module to go with it of course... musicthing.co.uk/pages/mikrophonie.htmlThe other Music Thing module I always wanted was Radio Music, so much so that I seriously thought about getting a small Euro case centred around it. I understand from this thread though that the planned AE sampler may be along these lines though, so musicthing.co.uk/pages/radio.html |

I might start experimenting again with creating an eternal modular interaction box with contact mics in it that would feature drop in modules and textures so that the items on the box could be switched out (like kalimba, springs, 3-d printed textures, etc) |
