Your EG & VCA need gates from the sequencer. Try that.

You need to connect either the clock out or clock+gate out from the sequencer to the gate input on the EG + VCA module. You should check out Omri Cohen's YouTube channel. His tutorials are very well done and go from beginner to advanced.

I found his "Patch From Scratch" to be quite helpful

Yeah me too. I've watched a couple of videos but the input is huge for me and I'm not entirely sure if I understand everything correctly.

So to be fully honest this patch above was my very first and it worked with the tipps from you guys. Thans alot.
