David,

The modules you list below describes the mini system (1 row of modules),
except that one also includes the A-190. Only the Basic systems (2 rows of
modules) are available in suitcase versions, so I'm not sure what standard
system you're talking about.

If you consider getting the mini system I would advice getting it in a
standard size case - you'll quickly discover that you want more than one row
(84TE) of modules, and the price of the larger case isn't much higher
compared to getting a second 3U case later.

As I haven't heard the Gusgus album I haven't a clue as to their sound, but
I can see Dieter already posted that they have a fairly large system, so
don't expect similar results with just a few modules. Don't let that turn
you off modular synthesis, however, as you can still do some very cool stuff
with a small system.
