Midi to CV module or sequencer module (or both?)

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I'm just starting out and planning my rig and I am wondering if there are any big downsides to using an external sequencer/midi keyboard to control my rack. I have a keystep and a novation sl MKIII that I used to control all my other synths and it seems a no brainer to just add the eurorack to my current setup, however, the more I learn about modular people seem to be really into self-contained systems with some sort of modular control.</p> <p>Are there any big downsides to using midi to cv? If I have a multi-channel sequencer I am guessing I can control all of my modular oscillators as if they were just normal synthesizers, but I don't want to &quot;miss out&quot; on the weirder generative sequencing possibilities afforded by modular sequencers.</p> <p>Can I have both in one system?</p> <p>If it matters, I am only really planning to use my rack for melodic duties, not percussion.</p> <p>Thanks, and apologies if i sound like a complete moron or am missing some basic concepts – I am brand new to this.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/wokuspokus69"> /u/wokuspokus69 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/105h8w0/midi_to_cv_module_or_sequencer_module_or_both/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/105h8w0/midi_to_cv_module_or_sequencer_module_or_both/">[comments]</a></span>
