Hello

I've just seen the mockup screen of the forthcoming triggermatrix module:

http://www.doepfer.de/a157.htm

I think I am known not much for effusive postings, but - sorry - this 
module combi makes me wet panties (ok, in the figurative sense) . So 
many cool functions: shift L/R, invert, swap, and it looks like it will 
have MIDI and/or USB clock int (I hope the MIDI/USB-in will on the 
A157-3). I always regretted, that I sold my Schaltwerk, which I used as 
trigger generator only.

Oh I want this!

Florian

Me too!!

just have to add my own "me too!!!"had the same reaction when i saw the latest 157 mockup: "yeah, guess i'm going to have to get another monster case sometime this year, start filling it up with even more modules..." ;-)(also excited about the new clock divider & multiplier mods!)

Thank you Florian ! Hopefully the A-157 will come to an end soon. We had several redesigns over the last years and think that now
it's time to release the module. At NAMM we will try to find out which of the features are essential (shift left, shift right,
invert, swap, first step, last step, forward, backward, pendulum, random and so on) and which can be left out (e.g. from my first
experiments swap is not very meaningful). And we also discuss if it's better that the select function is limited to one row only
(i.e. only one row can be selected for the functions shift/invert/first/last/direction) or simultaneous selection of more than one
row is better. Both has advantages and disadvantages.

Best wishes
Dieter

P.S. I'm about to leave for NAMM and will be not able to respond for the next two weeks to emails or posts. It does not make sense
to take along a computer or smartphone as the NAMM is nearly a 24/7 job (booth buildup, exhibition, dinner, parties, booth
dismounting ...).

I'd  prefer to have multiple selections. The typical situation: you jam 
into a groove, and then you find, that the pattern starts on 3 instead 
on 1. Then you want to move the whole pattern.
