Doepfer A-112

This module takes modular synths outside the analogue realm, since it is completely 8-bit digital in nature. Don't expect the same quality as the modern soft samplers (which can be 16, 24 or 32 bit), but that is not the point. The gritty sounds you get from this module are perfect for many electronic genres, and the ability to play samples inside a modular synth, and process the results through analogue filters, or play them with a sequencer, brings a whole refreshing new dimension to your music. Get one (or even two maybe - I knew a man who had four!)
