My system will be
2 vco
2 env
1 mutimode filter
1 comb filter (unusal filter type to make phasing/flanger sound with. It's a bucket brigade delay line thing)
1 cv mixer
1 audio mixer
1 ringmod. + multiple
1 VCA
1 Modulation unit (noise,sample&hold,LFO & vca)
1 RS140 midi/CV converter
1 Multiple (2 rows of 5)
1 Clock divider (can separate any incoming signal into :2, :4, :8 and :16)
Should do for a while. The price ticks in at about $2000 (no direct comparison really since I live in Europe), so damn on you

Can always add more stuff later. I been messing with a huge AS system in the store for 6 hours or so, and am totally hooked on the sound and possibilities.
I love the fact that I can save space by including a single modulation unit that contains LFO, S&H, Noise instead of 3 separate modules. Can of course get single modules with more features, but this will give me the basics of each anyways.
