I am very dumb with modular stuff, and this step-by-step walk through was really useful.

Thank you so much for these lessons, it's very enjoyable to watch! I've been around modular synths for about three years now and I'm still learning something new, it's a never ending learning circle :) Thanks, looking forward to the next video!

A nice step into the topic, and I can recommend that book, since it's a great read not only for beginners to get inspired and learn something! One thing that seldomly gets mentioned about Triggers & Gates in respect to clocking units is the sensitivity of the clocking-inputs, especially with triggers: Depending on the choice of modules when starting out, some people will face confusion, since some clocking does not seem to work as intended, because the clockinput of a device does not recognize the trigger every time or even at all. This happens with some clockdividers that spit out triggers that don't quite reach the voltage-amplitude that is needed for another module to recognize it, with others the dependence on a certain duty-cycle hinders a trigger from being recognized because the "event" is way to short. This happened to me right when having built my first smaller rack and I did not bring my Sequencer to work with the clocksources I had. I figured the sequencer to be broken, but then tested out with different gatesources at hand to realize, these would work. Shakmat's Time Wizard clocking QuBit's Bloom is a great example: Having the outputs 1 - 4 of Time Wizard not being able to clock the Bloom, the outputs 5 & 6 of the Time Wizard are sending gates instead of triggers which work for Bloom. I'm sure there's other examples of that. Also I later on got the concept of "syncing a clock" and "advancing a sequence" differ from module to module which makes quite a difference in operating some units. In general, I find the digital modules to be more picky when it comes to the quality of the clocking-signal. I'm leaving this here just if for any chance someone is having issues like that :)

True, I even had modules not responding to triggers adequately because I was using cables with LEDs that suck some voltage

@@AlessandroMastroianni Oh yeah, about them, I totally forgot. I've seen some people even using them for critical cv and wondering why their tuning misses the mark. I think these are better aimed at "showcasers" or content-creators in general, since they help visualize what others need to see to learn.
