Another vote for a vocoder. Made be cool if it can be fixed with multiple modules Let's a carrier/mic module (so you can use it as a "talkbox" with 1 filter) and a fixed filter bank to actually achieve the vocoder part.

sequential switch where trig rotates thru outputs (preferably bi directional) - inlets: i/o , trig, reset outlet i/o 1-8 , pot for number of steps, (though I could use a divider for this to reset)
quad logic with and/or output, and a switch for each that turns them instead into nand/xor. ... we'd lose not. (the dual logic is still useful for that, and having 3 logic options without switch)
edit : just noticed that someone is kindly keeping the top post up to date...
so for completeness
arduino module something like ornament and crimes/ ard core. from my ArdMod , id say 4 pots, 4cv in , 4 buttons, 4 leds , and 4 cv out seems a good combination.

Been meaning to make a suggestion on this one for a while. Not sure if it would work best as a dedicated module, or as a configuration under the upcoming DIY module. But it looks like it would be a pretty simple port, especially given AE's friendliness toward Arduino-oriented stuff.

Hello guys, this isn't a wish for a particular module as such, what I would really like would be sets of cables of different lengths but the same colour, this would make tracing back complex patches much easier, as you could use different colur codes for different signals,(red, say, for audio, and blue for CV, or trace different audio/modulation paths. My eyesight isn't what it was, and I think this would make a big difference, as it is, once a patch is too complex to trace, I just pull it all out and start again! This would make saving patches as photos work better as well. What you think?

But then it will be harder to find the cable length you want if you got all your cables in one zipbag. (I am too lazy to sort them everytime)

After having the AE modular for a week now, I experience i highly need a decksaver for it. My cats are in love with the wires. You can imagine what kind of end result this can turn into. Next to that it would be nice to be able to transport the modular without depatching or being worried the wires will break. Obviously there can be a DIY solution for this, but I don't mind buying a good option.

A 4-input VC stereo panning mixer in 1U. So four mono inputs with a CV input each for stereo position and then two outputs for left and right ear and four input volume knobs. I wouldn’t need dedicated pan knobs, but those might fit on a 2U version.

Extended midi module
Not quite sure what specs should be on this, i think probably modeling on the expert sleepers fh1 is a good idea. This has 8 outputs which can be configured as either pitch/gate , or cc outputs (amongst many others but these are the most important?!)
Perhaps with usb midi host input?
There could also be more fixed approach eg sometimes I’d be happy with 4 gate triggers off different notes
Or perhaps this module is better as just a ‘patch’ for an Arduino module with 4cv 4gate outputs? (Avoidance issues of creating UI etc for module)

I want the RackLink module! Its the only thing between me and buying another case and more modules... Only have space for one more module (well two if I don't buy a rack link...)
After that... well how about a real diatonic cv/gate sequencer (as opposed to the pentatonic one that is currently available) with say, 16 steps switchable to various configs: 1 x 16, 2 x 8, 1x8 2x4, 4 x 4 where in each config a separate trigger input would be available - so you could have polyrithms or polymetric kinds of output. (or a clock divide knob for each set of four steps).

Hi Joel, without giving too much away (it has been hinted at anyway in the last tangible waves blog post) I can assure you that this module will be released before the end of this month!

Kind of out there idea, but would it be feasible to build a modular around the RTL-SDR tuner chip (R828D)? There are RF eurorack modules which can pickup AM/FM/Shortwave, but an RTL-SDR chip would give the user full range.

A VC Mixer would be great,; but being able to fade a modulation level in/out from another source would be epic but really want it fro the VCO/Noise which I normally run to the 4/4 mixer; if you could control levels in via CV it would be a doddle to do a chiff of white noise, or have a harmonic fade in slowly. Yes, you can do this with VCAs but then I feed them into the mixer before going off to the Filter....

... but then I feed them into the mixer before going off to the Filter.... What do you mean by this? How would the signal chain be any different when the VCAs were integrated into the VC Mixer, instead of separate modules going into a regular mixer?

How would the signal chain be any different when the VCAs were integrated into the VC Mixer, instead of separate modules going into a regular mixer? If I was only using 1 oscillator and no noise it wouldn't matter, as you can go from the VCA to the Filter. It would save modules mostly - the VCA can be CV controlled to set a volume/level, whereas the 4/4 mixer can't, so a patch I did recently I had the noise and and a 2nd oscillator through Envelope controlled VCAs before the mixer so the levels were altered as you held the note without handing to do it manually. Then the mixer out of 2 oscillators and the noise went to the filter, (and the Multifx, wonderful stuff!).

Re: Oscilloscope
If this goes forward, I would like to see a tuner included. Looking forward, four inputs would be nice so we can detune voices or make chords. The Intellijel 1u Zeroscope is a dual oscilloscope with tuner. It may serve the same purpose if people don't mind connecting to Eurorack, which is my setup.

Module which adds overtones. Saw this on Make Noise 0-Coast. I believe it was inspired by the Serge Wave Multiplier.

Pure Sine module: Produces sine wave.
As oscillator, audio out and 1v/oct ctrl. Knob for tuning. FM in. Attenuator for FM in.
Switch to drop octave for sub oscillator.
That would be a lot. A user could buy multiple modules to create FM voice with as many operators as they want to buy.
Bonus feature: switch drops sine to LFO range. CV Out. Knob for rate ctrl. Trigger in.

An USB Midi Module with a tweak. Here we have a module with USB port which acts like a USB Midi receiver (may be even sender?). Then we have 16 midi channel each of them represents a CV signal. In a CV/Gate combination perspective one can have 8 parts each made by 2 midi channel, one for CV one for Gate. On the module interface we can have up to 16 CV out sockets.
This would open a gateway for higher level Mobile App midi controller which made specificly for that AE module or what not. Or we can control AE system with other midi sequencer (say Electribe, Circuit) in very different (and interesting) way.

a couple inspired by the the Teenage Engineering Modular and Volca Modular - Complex or FM oscillator (I guess we have this already on the list, so consider a +1 to vote  ) - Speaker module ( stereo pair option  ) - Battery module (USB rechargeable?) Reading comments on POM and VM , a lot seem to like the portability aspect, and I can see its appeal - sitting outside with just a AE could be fun (in the summer  ) , I can currently do this with a USB Battery + adapter, and headphones, I guess I could add some 'minirigs' but a self contained unit would be awesome until TW comes up with them, I'm thinking about a DIY solutions, a couple of technical questions for robertlanger - can I "back" power the Master Module thru the ribbon cable? (5v) , i.e. if i put 5v onto the ribbon cable and a master unit is connected (but not powered) , what will happen? any magic smoke ? Id prefer not to modify the master module, but that is the other option of course. - Speakers, any thoughts on power required to drive, and issue this might cause? I guess a small amp?

One thought about the VST host above: if it was possible to work something out with Expert Sleepers so that they might concoct an AE version of their ES-8, this would work perfectly with such things as Silent Way, Volta, etc. All the module is is a USB soundcard, DC-coupled, but it would be necessary to either instruct the onboard processor as to the AE CV requirements, or to add a patch to the software so that negative voltages, etc are disabled. Might be something worth looking into for Robert, maybe as a cooperative venture with Expert Sleepers...??

VST host, only really viable option I can think of is based on a linux platform... my BelaMini (see DIY section) could do this, but they do consume quite a bit of power, and can propagate noise, and honestly would be a bit of a support nightmare for Robert.
ES-8, yeah could be cool... but the ES8 is pretty expensive, not sure it fits the 'budget profile' of AE?

Not a future module wish, but if the master unit is ever updated, a choice of Midi channels would be good for those incorporating our AE modular into a larger studio please. :-)
