Doepfer A-136

As with all Doepfer products, the a136 is powerful, inexpensive and logically laid out. It requires careful gainstaging to coax the best performance from it so be warned you'll be spending some time initially finding the sweet spots - but they are there, rest assured. I often use the a136 on my stand alone synths also, as well as my eurorack only sound design, with great results. Just remember your gainstaging and you'll love it.

It's a really good hard clipper and it works well as a waveshaper. However it takes a bit of time to understand how to get the most out of it. I'm still learning....
