I don't know what you mean exactly... if you say you like some sounds from them then it is appealing to you, right.
If it sounds right, it is right. That is all that counts.
Can't help with the sequencer tho.


Thanks rackmode. I'll look into the A-185-2.

Btw - I listened to some youtube examples of the A-137-1 (wave multiplier) and I don't think that's what I want. So I made a new version which drops those & the Erica Pico's, and then adds more Doepfer noise, S/H and random modules instead.

How many VCAs would it be reasonable to have in a duophonic system where each voice is at most made up of three sources (2 VCOs and noise), and when one wants velocity sensitivity? I noted that the A-147-2 LFO has a VCA that can be used standalone as well.

And - am I low on multiples in the new version? (I have two A-180-2 at the moment.)


Doepfer make some great modules for sure, I currently have a A-132-3 dual linear/logarithmic VCA and the A-110-4 quadrature thru zero VCO. Your setup looks all good to go. I wouldn't bother with the A-132-4, I would swap it for the A-185-2.


Hi all, first post here.

I am trying to put together a duophonic modular based on Doepfer. I know synthesizers pretty well (have owned a MS20 and a MonoPoly in the past), but this would actually be my first modular. I live in Europe, and so Doepfer is the brand that seems most economical to base the build on. I will use this mostly for non-percussion/non-rhythm/non-sequenced parts, in other words mostly pads and drones and stuff like that.

Questions:
* Does this look reasonable? Are there modules in there that are known to be inferior to other brands etc?
* I want to have velocity sensitivity applied to amplitude and VCF cutoff. Do I have enough VCAs for that, and/or missing anything else?
* Anything missing that I absolutely should include? Anything over the top that I could live without?
* Will I be able to get a vintage/non-sterile sound from these VCOs, or are there others I should go for?

The rack is here!

Thanks! /lesuedois


Thank you! Does this make them unappealing? Because they are digital? I like some of the patches I have heard from them. Kind of my style. I currently have a Mother 32, 0-Coast, Maths and Clouds and I am looking to expand. I'm going to purchase an Intellijel 104 hp x 2 rows with a 1u row case. I was considering Elements and Metropolis vs Rene sequencer. Any suggestions?


I've had a mother 32 for about a week with not much chance to play yet

I see. I didn't read carefully enough - thought he didn't have the mother anymore


I've had a mother 32 for about a week with not much chance to play yet

Spend more time with the mother, naturally you will hit limitations like not enough vca's or mixers or attenuators etc...
just buy what you are missing and let your rig evolve on its own module for module is usually the best advice anyone can give you, just listen to your rack it will tell you what it needs.

I don't know how you will play the thing

his mother32 has everything on board
but research the mothers quirks to not get suprised by buggy behaviour. it has some weird things going on like no proper grounding and other quirks that are nice to know beforehand so you dont run into trouble.


I think it is a really nice starting system, with not much to really miss. No errors.
Play with it, and you will see yourself what you are missing.
I don't know how you will play the thing, but I guess you either have cv-keyboard or you play it from math/batumi. If the second is true I personally would miss some triggers. I think Brain Seed would be a good companion for you setup with maths.


Hello Andy,
Neither Clouds nor Elements and Braids are fully analog. They depend on microprocessors - only the input/output and cv modulation stages are analog naturally.
To make a fully analog version of Braids the module would fill up the space of .... I don't know - something really really huge.
Mutable Ripples is a filter and it is for instance fully analog.


Moog Mother 32


I really like some of the things I hear from Mutable Instruments. I have Clouds and am thinking of picking up Elements or Braids. Are these modules true analog? Sorry if this is a dumb question. Relatively new to this.


Thanks Tom. Good luck with the planning!


Like you, I'm in the planning stage so can't be of help, but I see Erica VCO and VCF caught your ear! Looks like a great selection.


ModularGrid Rack
Hello, my first post here. So I want to put together a great sounding monosynth with loads of waveshaping possiblities. I have some good fx already so no fx nodules to keep costs down. Am I missing any essentials? Perhaps some modules are superfluous. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Yay!


Take out modules 1 by 1, let the PSU heat up, see if there's any difference. Maybe one is faulty?

Do you have a multimeter?

And/or behaviour


Is it a plan or built? Nice collection of chaos modules anyway :-)


Thread: 1st rack

Any one have any thoughts on if any of this would be a pointless module or too redundant? Would be pairing with an 0 coast and mother 32

Really wish I could replace the picture I uploaded. The pedal is white and the picture blew out the whites so it ended up screwy.


Thank-you kindly. I'll start looking them up.

Was wondering if any kind souls could spare a few thoughts/suggestions regarding the below as I'm a total noob as far as modular goes. I've had a mother 32 for about a week with not much chance to play yet and naturally it's making me want to learn more. So I've watched some vids, read a few guides and been on most of the big manufacturer websites and with my limited knowledge came up with this:

ModularGrid Rack

Do these modules relate to each other reasonably? If so, what should I do with the remaining space?

I was thinking it would be nice to have some connectivity with MIDI and to my DAW and was hoping for some recommended modules that would do the job as it would be nice to fill the rack.

Perhaps there are glaring errors in the design or I have chosen modules poorly. Some direction would be gratefully received.

Thanks for listening!


I have one. You must email Zerosum Inertia (module entry creator) here or on MW to purchase.


I'm not sure if you already have the case but if you don't I would recommend getting the synthrotek power lunch (44hp) because it's powered on the side of the case you don't have to get a power module. So more room for other modules.


Very melodic and uncharacteristically long for something little old me has been involved in. Mucky beat. Like floating down a river of mud or baking cupcakes with too much batter in the tray.

Praise or blame, kind or rough, any comment will be cherished.


You cannot delete modules when they are already assigned to racks.

Beep, Bopp, Bleep: info@modulargrid.net


Ohh gotcha! Clever.


I am playing with some options for a budget(ish) lunchbox eurorack conversion for a friend.

Based on much YouTube research, I thought this configuration would be fun and useful, any input would be helpful, thank you. :)


The point of not straight out deleting them is so that other users can make the updates to their rack with the correct module. I always include a link to the current listing so that it's even easier to find. Often the duplicate is seen and added by others as well.


You can delete these yourself if you click "edit module"

You could drop the uVCA or Optomix in a rig with a single oscillator.

Thread: Budget Rack

Don't see any MIDI inputs so at the moment the Pressure Points is your only controller. You might want to add a Brains to automate it. For half the price (new) of a Braids, you could get a Synth Tech E330 multi-timbral VCO. Or you could go with a much cheaper bread and butter analog VCO, like a TipTop z3000 or a Intellijel Dixie. Research the Rosie - Makenoise makes great stuff in general, but IIRC not everybody is happy about it. Sure would be nice to have some kind of LFO

Overall, seems a good rack for a start - once you start making music it should be obvious what you need next.

Any comments on this rack would be appreicated.
I'm avoiding getting a sequencer at the moment, as I want to see what I can achieve without one.
If there's anything you think I'm missing please let me know.


Bought the hihats from @tFunk. Perfect package, fast expedition, top seller! Will buy again!
