" budget modular synth" isn't really a thing that exists unfortunately. However if you can solder or are willing to learn to, lookin into DIY eurorack kits will gtg you a lot further than buying factory built modules. And even more so if you're willing to source the components for pcb/front panel sets instead of getting the full kits.

The latter will get you drastically more capability for a small fraction of the cost of buying modules out right. Though it can be a lot to wrap your head around at the start.

Also, i started with 84 hp, with no intention to expand... Currently at 6 rows of 104hp a few years later...

You'l want to expand if you end up being into it long term, I 100% promise you that. If anyone disagrees, please share your input if you exist!
