Not cheap or Eurorack but the Moogerfooger gives you an easy to use  
BBD sound with CV on the main and relative high fidelity in a longer  
delay range. The RS-120 Module previously talked about has a short  
delay range that lies entirely below the Moogerfooger.

I have a Blacet Time Machine (Frac format), it has some clean up  
circuitry for the BBD (not bypassable). It has bipolar feedback and  
lets you run the chip in more extreme ranges - like the Doepfer and  
unlike the Moogerfooger. It falls inbetween in terms of fidelity, the  
Moogerfooger sounds substantially cleaner.

While not a module and not VC controllable at all, the BBD based  
Behringer Vintage delay pedal with  300ms of delay. Costs under US  
$30. I keep thinking maybe one might be able to attach a vactrol  
controller to the pots. There is no onboard LFO.

Cwejman announced a quad line delay. Don't know if it will be analog.  
The individual CV and outs seem like a good choice for putting  
together ensemble effect

Oh and by the way, the ASystems RS-310 Reverb/Chorus uses a  
multitapped chip as does the A-188-2. It's a substantially cleaned up  
sound in comparison but gives you no real indepth control. Just a VC  
rate and wet/dry mix, feedback is manual and output is just mono.
