Still in need of more modulation sources, EG and the like, but have managed to put this small system to good use with my MS-20 mini. Many pleasurable drones thanks to the Piston Honda/Clouds.

-Harvestman Piston Honda Wavetable osc.
-Make Noise Function
-Doepfer WASP filter clone
-DIY passive mult
-Ladik Random/Noise (has interesting 'geiger' output)
-DIY Mutable Instruments Clouds granular processor
-Pittsburgh MIDI2 to send clock/gates and free up the Function for more interesting applications

Excellent choices! I have used and loved the hell out of my Piston Honda. I recently got a Hertz Donut and that bad boy is proving to truly be something else.

As for a modulation source I cannot stress Pamela's New Workout! It is incredibly easy to traverse and learn. Really gave me quite the edge once it showed up in my case!

With the MK3's of both coming out I was able to grab it at a very reasonable price. Absolutely fantastic unit, have spent hours just letting it run with some slow modulation, I'm sure the newer model is even better. Would LOVE to get my hands on a Hertz Donut at some point, but with school approaching in the fall I don't think that's in the cards for now. I will have to look into Pamela, have seen these popping up quite a bit...

Anybody fucked with the CV Tools in the last update for Live?

If I may make a suggestion, don't go straight for a new oscillator filled with complex options and a billion possibilities. It's easy to get lost there and ultimately (I'm speaking from my own experience anyway, so maybe I'm totally off and very biased here) you'd rather get an oscillator to which you can add things rather than try to take them off. It's very tempting but after beginning with two oscillators with strong personalities and lots of options  I was very happy to get one that can create simple waveforms that would complete and add something to the complex ones from my other oscillators. You can get such oscillators for cheap, add an extra filter there, a VCA, and you're almost set.

I'll just say that Doepfer A-110's will always be there for $100, but sometimes you gotta grab those Vanity Modules when you see them. I am a big believer in effectiveness of the most simple units.

I have a weakness for Verbos modules so I hear you haha (although they're actually quite simple function-wise.)

This is where I'm currently at...

don't overlook filters with self-oscillation which can also be used as VCOs :)

In terms of 'fancy' shit, the only thing I would realllllllly love to have is one of these Trogotronic M679 tube Oscs

Eventually for my "fancy" I'm gonna get a 1010 module or two. More likely the sampler and the new macro oscillator they were working on.

[Euro Trash Bazooka]

I just bought a Radio Music and a Turing Machine. I think they'll fill the sampler job. The 1010 Bitbox seems ace but way too intense for me. It goes so far I'm not sure I'd ever want to learn how to use it.

I'm also waiting on a cv tape recorder module in the mail.

Literally just got my hands on a VCA matrix last week....did not know there was a Harlem style faceplate like yours.....goddamn that's a pretty bitch

[Cementimental]

Got this recently, fun and crazily cheap... Was going to build something very like this myself but they beat me to it: https://www.tesseractmodular.com/eurorack-modules/low-coast

radio killed the modular star!

That's a really cool module!

And the VCA matrix is great but also doing my head in. It's not as obvious as I expected it to be but I like the tip of the iceberg so far so I definitely need to crack it open. It has lots of potential (as evidenced by some killer YouTube videos.)

Just got my hands on the 1010 Waverazor and it is extremely expansive and deep as hell. It plays so nicely and gives a nice bit of grit when mixed with my Hertz Donut.
