just my irrelevant 2 cents, but yes, i absolutely agree, and have thought so since the first time years ago i got a third-party euro mod & was disappointed that it didn't do that. having cv & gate on the bus is one of those little touches, something so obvious most people probably wouldn't even think of it, that makes Eurorack such a great and flexible format. almost by accident Euro has become a de facto standard modular format, and a completely open one at that, so yeah, more mod makers should be taking every advantage of all the possibilities Dieter's system is capable of. if a mod of any kind responds to 1v/oct or gates it should have the option to use the bus or not (a couple jumpers to select, or like the 110s & 140s it uses the bus unless you plug a cable in the front jack).

Subject: Re: [Doepfer_a100] CV Bus question
Still to this day, I just don’t understand why more modules don’t connect to the CV and Gate bus. It doesn’t add that much to put a 16-pin header on the PCB (space is the only problem for some) and a header to enable the function. Almost every Synthwerks product we make that produces a CV or Gate connects to this bus. I have converted every other makers modules in my rig that don’t to use it. With a A-185 the system is perfect.-James

Hello Neil,
just wanted to mention that it was possible to add this feature (additional jumper for CV from bus). Currently the A-110-4 are in
production and should be available end of May.
Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer
Any chance it could be added before the 110-4 is released?

Hello to you all (Dieter in particular!)
Does anyone know if the upcoming A-110-4 will read from the CV bus? Also, I’m looking to get an A-112 and wanted to know
if that can read from the bus as well.
Neil
