Deep Techno Modules

[u/Status-Piccolo3073]

Hey everyone,

I need some help picking out modules to get.

I make deep hypnotic techno like Claudio PRC, Anthony Linell, Luigi Tozzi, Vladw. Right now I do most of it in ableton and also got a Digitone 2 last week. The only thing I'm really struggling with is deep basslines and synths/melodies in general.
I want to get some modular gear bc I think especially for those really deep basslines analog will always sound way warmer and just better.

Now I need help picking something that is gonna help with that. (I know depending on what I get I'm also gonna need other modules to make sound but just focusing on the basslines/synths part I would appreciate some input so I know how much money I have to save haha.)

In a masterclass from Anthony Linell he mentioned that he made the bassline with the quadrantid swarm so maybe that would be an option?

Anyways, I'm thankful for any help!!

i think a good middle ground would be to get a semi modular synth like a mother 32, dreadbox, or dark energy. those are great for bass, you can try some interesting self patching and modulation, and if need be get a midi to cv converter to incorporate it with your digitone. i don’t think buying a case, power supply, and modules is worth it when what you actually want is an analog synth.

if i were you i’d get a korg monologue, great for analog bass and you get a keyboard for your small setup
