my current fantasy module would be a voltage controllable patch matrix,
12x12 or larger, strictly for routing signals, but with a preset save
option.
a number of modules could have their in- and outputs connected to the
matrix's in- and outputs, and connections could be made internally without
the need for patch cords being moved (i know, it might sound blasphemous to
some). it would be really interesting when one could save the matrix
settings and recall them, instantly changing complex patches. "scrolling"
through these presets could be vc controlled.
so the module might have 12 inputs and 12 outputs (or 16, 24, ...) for
signals and one or more cv inputs.
ideally the architecture would be so that using more than one made sense.

i don't know how hard to design and manufacture this would be... anyone with
a better understanding of how these things work
