Your average noob asking advice on their rack
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Hello all!</p> <p>*Update: removed the plonk and octo vca, and switched the Mimeophon for the Morphagene because that was the one that I thought I added. I'll fill in that gap once I sort through your many wonderful recommendations. I also took out the Qu-Bit chord, because I only see myself using it as a droneish thing and I can use Plaits' chord mode for that. *</p> <p>I've been looking around here for a while, but this is my first post here. Just your run-of-the-mill user asking for advice/constructive criticism/thoughts on my rack. Here's my <a href="https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/1798383">link to the ModularGrid page</a>. And a picture too:</p> <p>​</p> <p><a href="https://preview.redd.it/p806fajpf1e81.jpg?width=1121&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aa16f24ac1b2eba378de5fd9e4bab09c0fc57f80">https://preview.redd.it/p806fajpf1e81.jpg?width=1121&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aa16f24ac1b2eba378de5fd9e4bab09c0fc57f80</a></p> <p>Now for the details:</p> <p>I'm interested in generative /ambient type stuff.</p> <p>I already have a Behringer Neutron, which has two voices, two envelopes, an LFO, a S&H, a meh delay and a meh overdrive.</p> <p>I've already bought the case - a TipTop Mantis - and the Plaits. They haven't arrived yet, they're on their way. I'm not gonna buy everything all at once - probably a one module at a time situation.</p> <p>And my questions:</p> <p>I'm wondering speficially about the Plonk - the ambient music that I've listened to doesn't use much drums. Is it good value for the HP? Should I keep it? I'm also wondering if there's any blatant utilities that I'm missing. And do I have too many voices for the amount of utilities? I also wouldn't mind suggestions of chord modules that take up less HP.</p> <p>Of course, general advice/thoughts/critiques are also appreciated. And I think that covers it! Thanks for your feedback!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/SpectroTheSixth"> /u/SpectroTheSixth </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/scquy0/your_average_noob_asking_advice_on_their_rack/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/scquy0/your_average_noob_asking_advice_on_their_rack/">[comments]</a></span>
