The Dark Energy synth looks great ... but where is the slew/glide control
I do like the idea of building a micro modular out of the A111-5, and 3-4 other modules. Maybe 50HP wide with a strip underneath for the A115 pin breakouts (Inverter In/Out, LFO & ADSR out), plus a multiple and a couple attenuators.

What would really excite me is if a very small system like this could be battery powered. The twin sealed lead acid battery solution, adopted by some here, sounds like it works well. However, something running of one compact Li-ion power pack would take up much less room in such a small case. I haven't built a Doepfer system yet, but I am tempted by this possibility!
