I'm going to dive in to modular head first in the coming weeks, and was wondering to what extent you integrate other things like pedals into your setup. Any pitfalls I should be aware of?
I'm eyeing a used H9 Max, not specifically for this (I have a lot of pedals in general, am a guitarist), but it seems nice to have an effects chain I can insert different places in the modular system (especially the H9, but I'm also looking at things like external samplers – the 1010music Blackbox, for instance, even though it annoyingly seems to be kind of made specifically for modular, but also not, being that it isn't really a pedal, but isn't really a module either.)
I was thinking about putting in some Malekko SND/RTN modules (or similar, basically just to get line level) to get the H9 in there (and maybe set up a small pedal board with a handful of effects). Does this sound like a reasonable plan?
Also, I'm pretty inspired by people who use samples in their modular work, is the 1010music Blackbox overkill? I have a lot of tape machines laying around (not battery powered, sadly) that could work, I guess, but it's probably a bit limited?
