Hi Dustin,
   
   First off, I think that Mark Verbos gave you some very 
well-reasoned general advice. I don't know anything about your 
application. (ie: what, if any, modular gear you already own, what 
general type of music you produce) so I must qualify my 2-cents-worth 
here.
   IF you already own some other modular gear (some VCO's & a VCF 
maybe?), AND keyboard is NOT the center of your production method...
     I recommend that you try the sequantizer. I'm old and I've 
accumulated a pile of different sequencers (after a couple of decades 
they just seem to stack up, like kids, or old nat'l geographics!) and 
when I was kicking the tires (and smacking my lips) over the Wiard 
catalog, the LAST thing I wanted was another damn sequencer. But when 
I visted Grant to pick up my gear. He demo'd the features. He showed 
me how it functioned at audio frequencies as a CV-variable complex 
waveform generator, and that CV-variable sequence-order is a very deep 
feature. Even the octave feature looks a bit pedestrian on paper but 
in use, it's deadly! This is NOT your dad's old sequencer. I'm a 
fasitidious old curmudgeon and I was totally sold. So...if sequencers 
turn your screw, try the sequantizer. 
    It's WAY more than 8 polite little beeps in a nice neat row!
best.
