I’m just afraid of getting the wrong case for a module, it’s a huge amount of money to drop.
Not sure where else to post this…
Friday Night Fun with some new modules…

…it’s getting out of control…
That’s scary to hear coming from you man. I saw Noire et Blanc Vie’s 2-part documentary on Jexus. Could be worth a watch if you’re gassing a bit hard right now as he was arguably the king of GAS and found his way out of it, from the way he tells it at least.
Only this one more module and then that’s it…

…said no one ever and actually kept to it.
alas… more on the way
“Why buy all of that shit when you could just download VCV rack?”
Said somebody, probably one time
If you’re still going nuts, look into Rossum Electro Music’s modules. They’re the ones that made me want to build a eurorack, especially morpheus. Let me know how you get on if you go with one.
Since the old forum died I’m glad to find this thread again! Here’s an older picture of my rack(s). Some modules have been replaced (like the two 110-1’s) for a WMD/SSF Spectrum & Pittsburgh Waveforms.
I have alot of modules that doesn’t fit, and I’m thinking about expanding the rack with another 3x84 box. But I know what that will lead to. It’s never complete…
Here’s the updates versions:

I need a bit of help today and hope that some Eurorack wiz may have a good idea:
I am having trouble synchronizing my sequencers. I am using a Doepfer A-190-4 as a MIDI to CV clock and transport control interface. Clock works just fine, but transport is an issue. The Doepfer has a Reset out that responds with high voltage (constantly) to MIDI stop. My sequencers, on the other hand respond to voltage high as a clock reset or stop, so in a way the Doepfer does precisely the opposite of what I need it to do. I am using Rene MKII, Mimetic Digitalis, Pamela’s New Workout, and a Trigger Riot to sequence. I suppose I could use a logic module to put clock out only when no voltage is sent from the reset (advantage here: sequencing stops), but are there any better solutions? I’d have to get a suitable logic module with a NOT algo, so I might also consider an alternative MIDI to CV that is more suited to my needs.
Suggestions? Is there a way to solve the problem with what I have (includes a Deluge as master MIDI controller, which can put out clock and gate, and a Mutant Brain).
I guess I could just use a Gate and a CV output in the Deluge to directly send clock and Reset. The tricky thing is, that sending a reset via gate on end or start of sequence would hardwire a set cycle, which eliminates some of the neat abilities of the Trigger Riot. In fact, the Trigger Riot is causing me the most issues.
So, how does one send a single gate out only once upon a MIDI start signal?
I’ve only gotten through the first few minutes of this, but this seems like a good interview so far with apparently a polyphonic modular (which is a rare beast). This guy’s channel is pretty good for beginner modular stuff, I’ve seen a few of his videos.

What modules would be recommended for someone wanting to build a eurorack? I’m looking to get some stuff from Thonk and just wondering what the essentials would be before I start experimenting with other modules
I don’t have a modular (yet, I do plan on one eventually, mostly an issue of space), but I’d start with a semi-modular like Crave, Neutron, Mother-32, DFAM, or 0-Coast. I think you can get eurorack versions of most of them or they already go straight in. That gives you all the basics, and then you just start adding to it whatever you want.
I can post when I get home, Sound on Sound had a really good presentation from someone at Synthfest UK about building a modular and showing what one module can do, then two, then three. I think they only got up to 4 or 5 modules total before I was looking at a system that was really cool and could do a lot of interesting things.
if you plan to get into modular i’m not sure that semi modular is the way to go…
Semi modular seems the obvious route but…
Asked anybody who started with lets say a Mother 32 for example then gradually build their rack and you’ll find they never used the mother 32.
I have many full voices in my rack like Mother 32, Xaoc Karl Marx Stadt, Dreadbox lil erebus etc but never use any of them.
Id advise people who want to get into modular just buy single focused modules not jack of all trades master of non full voices.
For the price i paid for the Mother 32 i could of got a Verbos harmonic oscillator, and in the world of modular i know which one wins out of them two.
I am new to IDM Forums added the Mindphaser last night. Major gearhead and modular addict here.

I tried to outsmart the analog paradigm by going digital but I still went broke 
Do you have any pictures of your setup? Also, welcome!
I’m new this forum. I’m having trouble uploading photos, but if I can figure out modular, that shouldn’t be too bad lol
