I am still a modular use idiot. Someone explain to me how you would use something like this. The term analog shift register is not even in my pea-brained modular vocabulary.
It's like a digital delay, but it's analog <g>!
But seriously... the most common example is that you can use it to produce a (or several) delayed CV for melody lines (voices) that exactly follow the input -- for cannonic like stuff.
Used like this, you quickly need a whole bunch of more VCOs and the rest.
I'm sure there would be several other great uses for an ASR, but I've never had one so I can't say. I do like the idea of being able to whip one up out of a bunch of S/Hs -- but given a choice between having an ASR or three S/Hs, I'd take the S/Hs.
Juergen's idea of having a module with several S/Hs that are normalized as an ASR would be an excellent way to deal with both modules.
