OK, I assume your instrument is woodwind (bass clarinet, but maybe
others like saxophon).
So my definite recommendation is:
A-188 any BBD (which one is matter of taste) not for flanger, but for
standing resonances, karplusstrong stuff...
A-137 Waveshaper. This is a MUST for a monophonic acoustic instrument. I
do not know whether you work already with some kind of distortion, but
this one goes far beyond all you could think until now about distortion.
And while the most synth audio modules require very constant sound, the
waveshaper shows its real pwoer with dynamic input material from ppp to fff.
A-114 as Ring modulator is very nice, but it is only one single sound,
which could be achived very similar also by audiomodulation of a filter
or VCA.
A-106 with a clearinet I'd go instead for the A-101-1.
The A-196 can(!) be very interesting with an clarinet, but don't be
disappointed, if you find, that it is too extreme. If you want the
original PLL usage (transpose frequencies), then a guitar stompbox or a
Boss RPS10 might be interesting too.
A-110 is ok (but modify it so you can tune it through the full range
witht he pot)
Cancel the A-127 you already have two filters, you don't need this.
Cancel the A-125, and get instead a used guitar stompbox.
instead: more CV sources which make your play vivid:
-> Get a Sample and Hold and a Slew Limiter, i think there is a AS combi
module.
Some kind of analogue sequencer, not the A155, but maybe a A160/161 or a
A151 plus a mixer.
Trigger them by the gate out from the 119, and each note will have a
different sound.
finally: you will be in need of multiples. So don't forget them.
