Another slightly left-field suggestion.
I was an early backer of the original chibitronics.com/ Kickstarter, and a fan of the "electronic stickers" philosophy. And I've long wondered whether it would be possible to extend these from doing just LEDs into being used with sound. I wonder if there's a way to make a kit of conductive tape + LED stickers + sensors + the right kind of connectors, so that you could make your own fun touch panels for use with AE Modular.
The idea would be that you got, say, a piece of hard board that fitted an AE Rack. That had the right patchwire inputs / bus connections. But hooked up to something that afforded conductive tape connections. Then people could build their controller by sticking tape, sensor stickers and LED stickers.
It would be fun for kids, or people who wanted to give their AE Modular a more "folky" custom look. A combination of modular geekery with craft / scrapbooking etc culture.

Resonator
obsessed with this lil' device:
Could be a DIY project for someone...

Is there an opportunity for a firmware update/ alternative Firmware for the HEARTBEAT?
It would be Great to use as an example /3rd and /7th clock devisions.

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,  I wish I could order Ornament&Crime... I'm making my first AE modular and I'm leaving a blank spot for it... That and Euclidean patterns , TBD and Cirrus are all amazing modules... I'd be quite happy if I'd be able to get just one of those... The last time I checked in the shop it was only Starter pack one basically... I was pretty shocked when I saw all those modules..! |

Yeah, I want an O&C too, went to order it and, bugger! Ditto FMOS,  The Euclid Grid I can certainly vouch for as worth getting, I'm pretty sure I read on the forum there would be more late summer, but may be wrong! There is a waitlist/email when in stock on the product webpage, (just in case you don't know):-

I think a shrinked version of this module would be quite OP... something like Nerdsequencer project for eurorack... but this is lightyears more advanced.... it has euclidean midi fx matrix chain. It alone costs as much as a Starter system... Wondering how it could be envisaged something like this sequencer... maybe Kyaa has some ideas regarding how...  |

I'm sure chip shortages are a major problem for lots of digital modules atm (including the original FMOS), in a non-disrupted world a multi-operator FM synth would be cool as heck. Been enjoying this video and especially the guy's point about how often FM synthesis is buried beneath screens and menu diving. Give us hands-on control! |

i would love something along the lines of make noise's mimeophon. this module has always fascinated me & i’ve loved it’s flexibility

Would be great to have a full 303 module with oscillator, envelop, filter... something like www.openmusiclabs.com/projects/x0x-heart/ (it seem this module is already 5v powered so maybe it could be reused for ae modular..) |

I second rockysmalls earlier post, something like/based on the Make Noise Morphagene would be incredible. It's a beast! I have been considering starting a eurorack setup ever since I saw it.  |

I have been considering starting a eurorack setup ever since I saw it. a much simpler version of Morphagene with no SD card. Definitely doesn't need minutes of recording time, definitely less menu diving. It would be great to patch audio in with the master module and into MorphAEgene-light (tangible-genes?) and be able to cut it up into a few splices (9 instead of 99). I love the idea of recording a small piece of music and having a module overlap the audio (morph knob) and do longer or granular loops (gAEne size) and shifting between them with slide and organize. I would pay $$$ for this! It's easy to request, I have no idea how insanely complicated it would be to actually produce this for AE format. |

The thing about a tradition BBG delay or a pingpong effect, you always get the Doppler effect in the audio. With Mimeophon the repeat are all in real time with no Doppler. Plus in stereo being able to repeat at different rates or turned backward. The whole thing with Zones would be very nice. It's exactly what I need for my minimalist pursuits. |

It's easy to request, I have no idea how insanely complicated it would be to actually produce this for AE format. yes, would be exciting , perhaps the original ‘Phonogene’ that came before ‘morpho’ ie: mono version without any sd card that just records on the fly would be more ‘AE’able .. there is some things from Instruo like Arbhar and Lubadh that might come close , but i don’t know if either are ‘open source’ perhaps something designed from the ground up with an eye on all those AND chase bliss pedals might work? ( big dreams ) Morphogene keeps having the capacity to make me ponder a 64 or 104 euro skiff and try it with the MN wogglebug and ring mod thing .. but i think i’ve missed my window on getting one cheap .. which is a blessing in disguise on the whole I think we are maybe a bit ‘light’ on stuff that manipulates audio buffers in AE .. which is why the Cirrus is ‘always on’ in my patches still  we’ll get there #faithinlanger !! |

Heh, this is something that has popped into my head again over the past few days (something like 10 years ago I made a Reaktor Ensemble to do recording/granulation/looping and glitching — I was wondering about it in AE-land too. Just need to work up the brain a bit.
What sort of recording time would be acceptable?

Just need to work up the brain a bit. What sort of recording time would be acceptable? the phonogene had a 2mb memory ( hello old Akai S01 :] ) and it was mono .. so around 2 secs to 5 secs pitched low.. maybe a range of sample rates to time settings ( like cirrus ) might be apropo? the old 1sec, 2sec, 4sec, 8sec routine? i guess more ambitious lengths are easily probable .. but at what chip expense/availability?? |

30 secs or more of 44khz stereo would obviously be INCREDIBLE!! |

wow!
apparently Morphagene has 2.9 minute stereo ‘reels’ with up to 300 slice points allowed ... could be overkill?

Couple of things i was thinking about recently: i feel the need for a delay module somewhere between the LOFI delay and MULTIFX... lofi is kinda basic and the multi is very expensive... some kind of multi-head tape emulation would be nice...
Secondly, some kind of recorder module for saving sessions without having to hook up a laptop or other type of audio recorder! Bonus points if it can record 'retrospectively', like this DIY project github.com/betodealmeida/jellyjampreserve |

A Theremin module ? Nothing too fancy, something like the Doepfer A-178. I'm guessing this would be a fairly simple one technically, and a lot of fun while performing.

I am once again asking for crossfaders. I find it insane that it isn't more prevalent in modular. A crossfader allows you to : - Quickly mix 2 audio or CV sources with a single knob - Allow you to do manual transitions - Work as an attenuator if you only patch one source - Work as an offset if you patch one source and a fixed voltage
Throw in a VC control over the balance and you can : - Have a VCA !
- Animate a sound source by modulating the balance between 2 waveforms with an LFO, an S&H or a sequencer
- Use an envelope or an LFO to modulate smoothly between 2 sources of modulation
And you can even throw features like the Make Noise Rosie where when the balance is all the way to the left or right, the other source is sent to a separate output for the putpose of monitoring !

Crossfaders are great - I approve!
I always go back to CV LFOs. It seems odd given how advanced the format has become that I have to hack a cvable modulation source. I could hardwire a pair of envelopes but I like sines for modulation.
Talking of which quadrature sines!

I was a bit frustrated in my last patch to not be able to run CV feedback loops. |

sorry for the stupid questions but can you not easily patch a cv controllable LFO with the 2ENV modules?
