hello florian,

yes, i can see your point and it is very understandable,
the a143-2 and a143-3 are still such bread/butter modules.
of course the a143-x modules are all intended as low-budget
modules, the a143-1 also. i have to admit that i get
easily excited about modular stuff and when dieter doepfer
makes such cool suggestions like on the a143-1, i can't help
it and have to jump on these ideas. but i agree that we might
missed the point on the a143-x range. anyway i still would
like to have an advanced a143-1, as long as the 143-2 and a143-3
stay more basic.

best wishes

ingo
