> The A-199 has won ;-)

If you are using some kind of MIDI control / MIDI sequencer, then I
think an external DSP Device (standard MultiFX) does serve you better,
than the A-187-1. The A-187 is assumingly based on a standard
OEM-DSP-Chip, which has the quality of maybe some smaller Alesis or
Behringer MultiFx. You would get a much better FX quality if you buy for
example a Lexicon MX200, which costs less and provides two parallel
effects, and can be fully MIDI controlled.

So if you want to buy a module, then the A199 is a good choice, because
it is something unique.

reverb fan is talking here ;-) )
