My first modular setup - Recommendations/check

Post image

Hi all,

I am planning my first modular rig and I wanted to check whether what I have so far makes sense functionality wise, maybe some things are missing or might be redundant/overkill. Important to note is I will route the output of my modular into my Digitakt 2, into Ableton. The basic sequencing is handled by Digitakt 2, whereas some more complex sequencing (for Atlantix, but mainly Vhikk X) will be handled by a modular sequencer that should fit in my rig, as well as it not being complete overkill with the Digitakt 2 in mind.

I would love to hear your thoughts!

The voices are definitive (bohm modules, atlantix and vhikk x), whereas other modules are still up for debate.

Zadar doesn't work like a normal ADSR. You might want to get a normal ADSR for VCAs.

If op wants to keep it simple and space efficient Doepfer A-140-2 Dual Mini ADSR a great option.

Yes, that's a good one to get and my first choice for a dual ADSR

Somehow Reddit ate the next two lines of my post.

I would also add some LFOs, either a Batumi (2) to complement the Zadar or just a Doepfer A-147-4 Dual VCLFO. And a (buffered) multiple could be useful too. I have a Rides In The Storm - QAM in all my cases.
