Is there a way to 'emulate' a Klee with Eurorack modules?

I have been wanting a Klee for the longest time but not being much of a DIYer I was hesitant to build one. I was afraid of spending all the time/money on it and having it not work. So I sold off my PCBs and parts.

So...I'm curious to know if there's a way to approximate one with Euro modules. Skimming through Scott Stite's site I see I would need a Comparator, random source, shift register, switch and gate. But that's about where I stop... I'm wondering if any of you could enlighten me.

I kind of doubt it. At least I have never seen anything else like the Klee, and I can't think of good ways to emulate one without multiple 16x1 sequencers and CV mixers.

I kind of figured as much. I'm putting together my first modular and now that I have my VCO/VCF/VCA/ADSR/LFO setup I'm starting to look at other modules. I really like what the Klee produces. I should have just bit the bullet and built one.

I just looked at some of the Klee inspired NMG2 patches. This would take a ton of modules. Multiple randoms, multiple delays, multiple switches and gates, etc...

Funny coincidence; I'm actually trying to finish up mine before Christmas. I've now got the panel drilled and graphics applied, parts mounted in the corresponding locations and wiring commenced yesterday. The boards were the easy part. A PSU will be hand built, they're not that hard to put together so long as you have the parts on hand.

I had the full parts kit, PCBs and a panel design but after 3 attempts at building a MidiBox SID before getting one that worked I figured the Klee was too complex a project for me.
