The possibilities with MAX/MSP/JITTER and the A100 are limitless! You
could easily set up a crude sequencer using audio outs on your laptop
as voltage sources, triggering ADSRs -- to fine tune the signals use
the exterior input/envelope follower -- use those gates to trigger
events --

or go the MIDI route, of which MAX was literally invented to work with
-- you could create very complex MIDI signals to control any number of
parameters of your doepfer.

Jitter would be fun to use -- hook a webcam up, read it into a matrix
data structure, and have it control the filter cutoff of a signal
according to how much red is in the picture.
