difficult to say. it depends on the money you want to spend.
the a155 is very low in price. if you are satisfied with the
a155, why not buy another one i'm personally pleased with
the a155, i have two of them in my system, both linked
together with an a154.

the switch/a176 combination works for sure.
i often use the a156 dual quantizer for that. having the
sequences quantized to semitones is not a bad thing and the
a156 has a common transpose input, which can be used to add
the transpose cv easily. of course a simple mixer works too.

if i recall right there is a way, but i'm not sure.
maybe dieter can shed some light on this
