To be real, modular is not for everyone's liking and you need a ton of "boring" modules to make it jammable. A whole new world opemed for me when I realized that modular is not cool because of what it sounds like but how you sequence it. Now I have like 5 flavors of sequencers which I also use for modulation. The tone shaping and effects you can always do in post, but making lively sequences is so fun and surprising on eurorack

I agree with you!! And what i always missed was a good sequencer, yes I have BSP but I don’t think it’s the same as having a Eurorack sequencer

Modular become fun when you have tons of VCA and modulation sources. And even more fun with one knob-one function modules + analog things like cwejman or schippmann stuffs. I realized I get more and more creative with simple modules patched as fuck rather than menu-diving stuff with 294639 functionality

Exactly this! Imo, the beauty of modular is in how you sequence your system (pitch, gates, and modulation). Also, another opinion, utility and "boring" modules are king! I got that epiphany watching Steevio explain his live improv method a few years back which started my modular journey as a result hehe.

If speed and fast results is what you aim for, you lost the real soul of making music. After you stop the rush for a rendered stereo master to be released to the world, the real fun will come back. That is the fun we all had, when we started making music. I am so glad to have this back. This ist the love I missed when music was the profession that I made my living with.

I think your workflow with the electron gear and the modular already works pretty well. Consider that adding a few more modules will multiply what you can do with the system. If it gets boring you could sell a module or two to get something fresh. I would recommend to add some modules for CV manipulation and sequencing, maybe a cv controllable sampler/looper, and an additional effects module.

@@distillednoise sweet. So Maschine is always the master when stand-alone mode, and additional hardware? Really nice jams on your channel mate. I’m guna sit down and spend time with your modular vids as it’s something I’d love to get into eventually. Especially for techno. I’ve recently posted my first trip hop type Hardware jam. It’s on here under channel name of ‘Nicely Formed Sonic Egg’ if you’re interested. It’s nothing special as it’s only my second jam I’ve recorded, but yeah I’m getting well into it ;) I’m considering selling my Maschine mk3 and getting the plus as I really wanna be able to sequence my hardware and make use of the chord and scale modes, without having to be dependent on my laptop. Cheers mate ;)

I think the best thing is make space next to your desk for the modular (not on top)and have a hybrid setup. If sync is an issue there are several options for getting everything = sample accurate tight. I would not sell. Though I would change the monitors, had the focal 6be and at such close distances, they just don't open up and were too woody and dry for my taste )

Don't sell. Eurorack for life. The beauty is eurorack is your synth or system. You can't get this with any other format. You need quite a few modules to fully get it. At least 1 full case. It will defo get dull with a minimal set up. I use a full eurorack system with 5 rows of 104 hp. This is just about enough for me. Could do with another 104. lol. I have a studio with half modular and half traditional synths and drum machines and some acoustic. I use the modular the most. Reason- it offers the most fun and creativity. Patching is also very rewarding. It's beautiful and destructive. Build it then tear it down. No presets and no rules. enjoy your system and build.

I own a lot of modular but despite that based on what you're saying I would say sell it and use the money to fund gear you actually use as it's expensive stuff and if it's not getting used you should find a way to use that money for something else that will get use. I would also say having more modular means that it gets used more. I have about 2.5x the modules you do in my rack and I felt the same way you did when I had around the same amount of modules. These days the modular gets used on every track in one way or another. It's an indispensable piece of music making equipment in my set up.

Don’t sell it. You will miss it in the future. I have semi modulair synths. But use the maschine + and MPCx more often. But sometimes when i want get inspired i turn those knobs. And sample the hell out of those synths. Although i own a lot of vst instruments. I still wouldn’t sell the real instruments. Plug-Ins only stay alive if the manufacturer update it to the new system.

Sell it! I can see that you only enjoy half the modules and you are in a position where you would need more modules to really decide if you like modular. Or get a smaller case and keep the ones you like :) Build a small kick drum designer, or an analog fattener or anything that has utility in your PC workflow.

@@distillednoise cheers brother, I think a good approach in order to keep eurorack would be to create more raw system, add a couple of traditional synthesis modules, they can be cheap. 2/3 oscillators, small analog sequencers, filters or processors, something that can make your eurorack work also as an fx processor of whatever you put inside. But all of this can all be done with an arp2600 too so. But yea, having a couple of one module voices kind of restricts the philosophy of patch programmability where the system can be very broad and flexible depending on how you patch it. :)
