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

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.

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!

I have uploaded a better one.

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?

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

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

Had a good deal with @zannielzynga, who sold me a Zularic Repetitor
qick and fast and very pleasant

I have uploaded a better one.

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:

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.

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"

me (@bobje) made a good trade with @igorsv Thanks for doing business!

Well, it is manly!!

Seriously though, this board would be pretty badass, but I think I'm gonna go with the "ur mum" one.

your board makes me moist

Good transaction with @bobje

I think peaks is being discontinued. So if you want one grab one while they arent silly money!

me( @bobje) did a good transaction with @tyuss

thanks @bobje for the solid transaction!

Just completed a transaction with @Nuuttipukki , fast payment, clear communications. Recommended buyer!

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

4000 on +12 on startup (current estimate)

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.

me (@bobje) did a great trade with @igorsv Thanks so much!

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!

While it's true that Muff's is a lot more active, people are present here as well...

It's hard to assess a large jumble of modules without any context... what kind of music, what's your experience level w synths, will this be a mostly MIDI setup, are you getting much of this all at once?
Generally all the questions are best answered by the user him/herself - start slow, buy a module or two at a time and then make your next purchase based on what your music needs. Often I think people buy giant systems and then get quickly overwhelmed & frustrated.

The basics looks good - Maths, anti-Osillators, Disting for computer control & special functions, a Pamela's workout, and an O'Tool so you can see what you're doing (the ADDAC dual oscilloscope seems redundant!) Pico oscillators seem a bit stripped down - maybe best to match the Anti-Oscillator ("auntie") with another Richter oscillator ('unkle'), keeping in mind that these Wiard "Griffin" designs are out of production. Circuit Abbey's been having problems lately, so you might have to buy those ADSR's used if available. If you're new to modular, the Control Forge, while often lauded, may just be too complicated for a beginner. You might also want to explore more modern alternatives to the RCD/SCM - maybe just a 4MS Peg instead or a QCD.

On Muff's you'd hear the standard "you can never get enough VCA's!' - you might consider the new Intellijel quad VCA. If you're going 'classic' with the Wiard stuff, you might also want an LPG - like a Wiard Borg or Boogie (both out of production with matching Griffin's, but often available used) or perhaps a Makenoise Optomix.

Just a few ideas - if you just go slow, develop the system organically based on what you really need, you'll probably have a good experience

Thanks to @mortalitydrag for the sale and careful shipment of ALM Akemie's Taiko which looks like a super module! :)

i think that would be an nice startersystem for me, any thoughts? would you do something different?

it will be sequenced by an digitakt and recorded into cubase

Purchased an MI Elements from @PinPinKula. Good price, solid build and military-grade packaging. Recommended
