Doepfer

" I believe the SOU had a quad sample/hold output and a noise 
source."

There were more differences along with thie noise and the  
sample and hold -(which allowed for three different sampling 
rates of a single voltage input)  - there was an VC integrator 
(basically a slew limiter)  and  two  channels of what Buchla 
called  'fluctuating random' outputs, which were smooth random 
voltages and a trademark Buchla convention.  Really really nice.  

Dieter has pointed out that this effect is currently achievable with 
exsisting Doepfer modules with a patch (basically a S+H of  a 
100hz noise-modulated triangle wave through a slew) but I 
would REALLY like to see this all buttoned up into one module in 
the future.

One thing I really appreciate about Dieter is that he takes 
requests.  If enough people ask for something, it will come.  And 
that number isn't as big as some would imagine.  If something 
like 30 poeple speak up, he'll hit the breadboard.

So, guys... care to help me out here?
