N00b asking for help! Making a very very basic modular!

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Hello everyone!</p> <p>I was playing with VCV Racks and made a very basic patch about FM modulation: basically one VCO as a carrier, 3 VCOs as modulators and 4 LFOs to alter the sine waveforms of the carrier and of the modulators.</p> <p>Pretty easy yet &quot;oddly satisfying&quot;, I really have a lot of fun with the sounds I am getting out if it!</p> <p>And, of course, I started wondering if I could make it &quot;hardware&quot;. Of course I can but I am a little bit scared about the prices! I've peeked around and I've noticed that VCOs and LFOs are damn expensive!</p> <p>My idea is to have something very very basic since hardware modular synth is not my hobby and I am not going to spend hundreds of euros for a one time shot...</p> <p>Hence my question: is there a way to realize 4 VCOs + 4 LFOs in the most cheap possible way? DIY is absolutely fine! Knobs to modulate FM and waves are mandatory: check it out here....</p> <p><a href="https://steemitimages.com/p/3W72119s5BjWMGm4Xa2MvD5AT2bJsSA8F9WeC71v1s1fKfGkK9mMKuc3LcvF4KigbWg9UsrpEPG8Uc5AwwR3nXWd5RMwh7YxhLnzSUi24UdKjrSNHm1kuL?format=match&amp;mode=fit">VCO</a></p> <p><a href="https://steemitimages.com/p/3W72119s5BjWMGm4Xa2MvD5AT2bJsSA8F9WeC71v1s1fKfGkK9mMKuc3LcvF4KigbWg9UsrpEPG8Ud5R7QBqZ1dyyPZCK5WPSoJciw5uB6a9kn3axLfMHx?format=match&amp;mode=fit">LFO</a></p> <p>Hey, if my question sounds n00bish... I know. I am 110% n00b in this field. Every intelligent advice is welcome!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/TheGreatAssyr"> /u/TheGreatAssyr </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/a2rnil/n00b_asking_for_help_making_a_very_very_basic/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/a2rnil/n00b_asking_for_help_making_a_very_very_basic/">[comments]</a></span>
