hi Bakis. the module looks good , but i see the need for a few adjustments. the 4 led's to tell which direction it is moving in, is very confusing, especially in a live context with dim lights. my suggestion is to have 8 horizontal led's which indicate the direction the sequencer will follow. here are the possibilites chasing one another to the right for forward movement chasing one another to the left for reverse movement chasing one another to the right then back to the left for pendulum mode 1 and flashing the last leds twice for pendulum mode 2 random is just what it means a random diplay of its position. the plus side to this is its cheap and would provide a cool light show as well. hint blue led's. also you could have the VC Clock cycle the led's in time like the A145, 146 and 147 lfo's. the voltage controlled clock should have a variable pulse width with an input and manual pot. you could also add a reference envelope output for every stage like the A142 which is basically a linear decay envelope to to do short percussive sounds , this would save your envelopes for more creative modulations. here is the Feature i crave the most!! Two 10 pin connectors on on the back so you can have a VC analog selection for 2 sequencers to have 16 steps. you could have a switch to tie both the sequencers together or have them work separately from the vc clock. in the files section under proposed A154, i have done a shityy photoshop version with the suggested features.

The whole stuff might be stackable...

I am sure Doepfer could this make possible with some craftiness. look at the photoshop A154 file in the files section. it's pretty ugly work, but you get the jist of it. the led's should be spaced a little further apart. if the cost to implement the led's is another 10 Euros , i say "GO FOR IT" it will be a whole better thatn the 4 led's sitting idle. let me know what you think, thanks.

Is it possible that doepfer was already thinking about this module before the discussion came up? I think the module is a great idea and would love to own one. I hope doepfer goes ahead and produces this module. The only feature I could think to add to the A-155/4 modules would be a way to link two A-155s to get 16 steps. I know, I know, the MAQ has 16 steps, but, it doesn't have the CV control of the features we're discussing. Ethan

Hi Ethan > Is it possible that doepfer was already > thinking about this module before the > discussion came up? Its possible, since the concept of the A155 already contains a digital bus, that he thought about this for a longer time. > The only feature I could think to add to > the A-155/4 modules would be a way to link > two A-155s to get 16 steps. I know, I know, > the MAQ has 16 steps, but, it doesn't have the > CV control of the features we're discussing. Thats why I would like to have a modulare sequencer system.
