This is my small setup, build into a retro suitcase.

It contains 4 synth voices and 6 drums. Within 2x84 HP!!

Drums:
Kick: Shakmat - Battering ram - providing a inverted enveloppe to the Joranalogue Mix3
Hat: 2HP - Hat - OH and CH
Snare and percussion: Modbap Trinity
All drums into Frap Tools 321 into Modbap Hue voor Filter, Drive and Lofi FX's

Synth voices:
Polysynth: Knobula - Pianophonic - midi
Mono Synth 1: Klavis Twin Waves MKII + Granity Filter
Mono Synth 2: Modbap Osiris + Meridian Filter
Mono Synth 3: Doepfer A-111-6
All mod and env by: Klavis Quadigy and Joranalogue Contour 1

Out of modular grid picture:
Sequencer: OXI One, using 1 multi sequencer for 5 drum channels, 1 poly sequencer for midi / chord, 1 mono sequencers for lead, 2 matriacal sequencers for basses.
Mixer and FX : Teenage engineering TX-6 (12 channels mono mixer or 6 channle stereo) with 2 Bubblesound reducers to transform eurorack into line-level.

Patched up today.
Polyend Present into 2x WMD Sequential Switch works super! Mutes, Build-ups, Effect chains, CV parameters...

Next stage: recording and filming.

And fixed it!

Hi Lugia

Thnx very much for the feedback. I'll look into logic for sure. Thnx for the tip. Looking at the ARC Logic module video now. I'm a little intimidated bij logic to be honest. But you are right, with much sequencing it becomes handy!
I'll move the uZeus away from sound modules!! Or better: move the gallops to the right ;-)

After my x-mas spending i'll check out the doepfer filter! But for now: patching up and play!

Thnx for the advice. I'll keep a watch on that.

Brenso, Entity and Ripples have a internal VCA with VC control.
I use the Frap Tools 321 for balance in te mix for BIA and Chimera (also with internal VCA)

On top of that the 2HP double VCA...

Any advice on a good Quad VCA?

Trying to build a "smart system" with 50/50 preset/hands-on control:

• Nerdseq + expanders (with upcoming CV expander) controling soundsources:

• Assimil8or (Drums)

• Chimera (Percussion)
• BIA (Bass)
• Scanned (Drones)
• A-111-4 (Melody, arps)

Polyend Preset controling:
- 3x CV channels Assimil8or: with one CV channel controlling 8 banks of 8 drum samples = 64 drum samples.
- 1x WMD sequential Switch matrix Controlling: BIA, A-111-4/1-3, A-111-4/4 & Scanned in
Sending in matrix to: Clean channel, Erbe Verb, Chronoblob, Warps
- 2x Filters Cut-off freq
- 1x Chimera Decay
- 1x Warps algorithm

Mixing 16 channels in 4x Intellijel Quadratts:
- Stereo left > into panned left mixer (Left out: A8, Erbe Verb, Chronoblob, out-Warps)
- Stereo right > into pannend right mixer (Right out: A8, Erbe Verb, Chronoblob, aux-Warps)
- 2x mono

End mix with VCA sidechaining kickdrum & 2HP Verb.

Hands on control:
- Varigate 4+
- Voltage Block
- Batumi LFO's
- 4 Robots & Streams Enveloppes
- Event boss
- Switched Mult
- And all the knobs...

I swapped the Rene for the Nerdseq sequencer... and heaven on earth!
Very playable... and much, much more possibilities for musicality.

No menu diving, everything 1 layer deep.
