seconded, the a111-5 module is a natural for the beauty case of course. 

I also really like the sockets at the bottom - in general the eurorack format is basically too small for my moog-sized hands - having patch cables interferring as well takes away a lot of fun. I would like future doepfer modules to stay with this idea where possible

in my book two LFOs is always better than one but in this case I think I would prefer 1 LFO plus a lag generator, or maybe a single VC LFO

  strange, the lack of feedback over the a111-5 synth voice.
  as a
  mini-synth i suppose it's pretty run-of-the-mill,
  although at that
  price i dare say one or two other manufacturers are
  uttering the odd
  expletive. but as a kind of "five things you use in
  nearly every
  patch" toolbox, i think it's wonderful, although
  i'm usually no fan of
  putting as much as possible into a module.

  so if you'll forgive me for the one-sided feedback,
  here's what i like
  about it:

  knobs on top, connections at the bottom. i don't really
  like the sound
  of the cwejman stuff, but the layout i always found very
  good.

  linear and exponential filter fm. strange that this luxury
  should
  first appear in this context, but bring it on, say i.

  likewise for accurate vcf tracking. could the filter cv
  input be
  normalled to the cv bus?

  tune control with a choice of range. splendid!

  adsr/gate switch on the vca. is it connected to the gate
  bus?

  mini low-space lfo's. not sure how often i'd need
  two in one voice,
  but what else can you do with the space left over? :)

  as soon as the midi-cv interface is available i'll be
  buying four of
  these. but in the meantime, i look forward to replacing
  five modules
  with this one.

  dieter, how much hassle would it be to add a pin-header to
  the pcb?
  this could make available the separate vco and lfo
  waveforms etc. for
  the lightweight diy faction. or is development close to
  release?

  one more question. what's the difference between the
  triangle and
  sawtooth in its middle position?

  anyway, great module dieter!
