Hello,

indeed we are in contact with a few A-100 users about a new, smaller
noise/random module. We will take your suggestions into account. But I think
that most of them are already in our planning (integrated HSVCO for digital
noise, digital and analog noise, random CV, S&H ...). But so far there is no
release date or details about features and price available. I suppose that
we may show the prototype at NAMM 2019 (without obligation).

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer
