Haha :)
No , I’ll check that out . I did briefly look at the ER-301 but I’m still desperately trying to learn Shapeshifter so decided against it .
Thanks for your response Ronin, I fully understand what you mean. For me personally I haven’t found a better sounding kick anywhere , I love the Jomox. I was considering losing the rest of the perc , adding a ModBrane and adding extra perc via ableton. A separate rack does sound like a great idea though .
I did have a Squid Salmple but didn’t gel with it ....
The Analog Rythm does look tempting !
Thank you :)

I make techno . I’m looking to start a new sample / effects based rack . I also use H9 Max .
Would like people’s opinions / constructive criticism on current set up .
Thanks
It's really hard to get "a little bit" into modular synthesis. Can you get sounds out of your current set-up... of course. But in this current set-up with digital sound sources, you've spent a lot for what could be done with $100 VST plug-in.

That’s interesting. However I don’t want to have a computer in a club . Also , I can swap sound sources in and out ?
My current set up is a Roland Tr8s and Moog Sub 37 going into Ableton.
After having a go on other people’s modulars I just find it a lot more inspiring for the music I like to make .
I’ve bought these modules now . I want to use outboard effects and mixer . Is this enough for now ?
Overall it looks great. I don't know "Count," but it seems to have quite some overlap with PNW, so you may want to start with one or the other.
Right now, it will be hard to get a "melody" out of it, so on top of what you get from Count, PNW and Maths, you may want some more control over triggers and V/oct for Squid and Plaits. Depending on what you like, you could add a controller or sequencer (tons of options), a USB to CV module (say, FH2) for interfacing with a keyboard or computer, or some "generative" modules (random, s&h, quantizer, burst generator, logic, etc.)

Thanks mate , I’ll take count out . As I said I’m not really sure what I actually need .
Can you recommend any decent quantiser ?
Please let me know if I’m missing anything, still quite new to this .
I’m mainly using this rack for techno sounds but not drums .
This is all I can afford currently but will add other modules as I go along .
Any help greatly appreciated
It is excellent. It covers all the basic waveforms (sine, square, saw, etc.). It has an internal VCA and envelope generator (and low-pass gate emulator) that make it very immediate to patch. It has more advanced modes, such as a 2-operator FM, wavetable oscillator, harmonic oscillator, and various percussion and noise sounds. It is great for experimenting with all these different oscillators and modulations. No brainer. Go for it.

Thanks for the reply . Ok I’m buying it :)
Is this a good oscillator to start off a new rack ? Someone’s offering me one cheap , cheers
