Looks like the DE1 will be quite a collector's item with its unique features and accurate vco.  I'm glad to have one.

The VCO is close to the A-111-1, but there is no A-100 VCA module available with the combined linear/exponential response of the Dark Energy/A-111-5 VCA.

We think about a redesign of the unit (Dark Energy II) but it will be another instrument with a different sound and features (e.g. probably a 12 dB multimode filter with lowpass, highpass, bandpass and notch instead of the 24 dB lowpass).
