CW,
I find that the one thing I run out of quickly and need at least a couple more of is the UAP. I use these as pretty much conventional VCAs, to do audio event shaping before going out to the "Real" world via the DCSM. I use the stereo module as a master out L/R. Since I have a "red" panel and a "blue" panel in the same SKB case, I get four VCA channels with two auto-panning pairs, I take the first two and hit the inputs of the DCSM, left and right. I take the second two and put them into the Aux ins of the DCSM, creating a four in, two out mixer at the DCSM. this works really well and gives really controllable mult. gain stages, like you would see in a normal mixer. The addition of the "Animal" will give me another two VCAs, in the additional UAP, which I really need at this point. It does create the problem of not having enough master output stages however. Rex suggested that, since I was really happy with using the DCSM as an output mixer, I should put another one in the last module position of the custom panel and mount it underneath the soup kitchen1, which will give me 4 channels out to mix, and eight channels of input. This is the poor mans' quad output,and saves the panel space of a multi channel Serge mixer. So I don't see the 3 UAPs (I intend to mount the animal underneath the red and blue panels, creating a "voice block" and lineing up all the UAPs down the right side of one SKB) and the 2 DCSMs as reiterative at all. It's just the voice/event-shaping/output section, and I keep it mostly patched that way. The exception is when I want to do something tricky using a UAP, and then I still need an extra one in order to keep my "normal" output section.
Maybe "lust" is too strong a word, but I actually dreamed at night about Serge patches for years before I bought mine. I had studied the system and put together many mock-ups on paper, Including a pretty much perfect (for me) 12 panel system. I now feel that mine will be pretty much complete at nine panels, but there are some modules coming in the future that may make me rethink that again.

not sure I would want 3 x UAP and another output module, namely DCSM.
