I too would love to see more 5U from you, Paul! I second David’s call for a big-ass sequencer and a scale quantizer, and I’d love to see filter bank, pan/crossfade/scanner, phaser/flanger, and tube distortion modules.

A flashy Sequencer with at least 32 steps that will hypnotize people watching from the back of the room...none of this one knob to program each step business that I think you dodged a bullet not putting out for anyone but Robert Rich(...who's great and super nice dude on top of it) maybe an full version and an scaled down "JR" version as well.

Also some African, Middle East, Eastern Asia, South American etc...it also works with Hz/V and Buchla systems as well. Just make the best darn scale quantizer ever.

I could use module that was an true DUAL SINE wave VCO that had internal LFO and A/D EG to modulate. I'd love to have a single voice "DX" to create the texture of rubber glass.
