I have a lot of the modules you're considering. I have to agree with
another post that the uses of the A-132 aren't necessarily
overwhelming, at least for me. Generally something more full-
featured is necessary. I'd sell you mine without regrets.
The A-116 waveform processor is excellent, I truly love the -24 dB
highpass filter, and you obviously can't go wrong with the noise
module.
As for the AS stuff, I have the RS30 follower and its pitch-following
isn't terribly tight -- its uses are more abstract, e.g. with
followed unpitched sounds controlling a VCO. The AS VCOs are truly
great -- much warmer and fatter than the Doepfer A-111s. That said,
they'd be perfect if they had a fine-tune knob and pots for
attenuating pulse-width CVs. And I happen to love the sound of the A-
111s. I want more of both.
