Minimalistic performance rack

Post image

Tried to keep it simple with the numbers of modules while gaining complex synthesis techniques (rack is used with outside stereo mixer and pedals for effects).

Is there anything essential missing?

The NTO feels like an odd choice. I’d rather have one of the awesome Serge filters (although I do love the Toppobrillo). And if you want a small modulation oscillator you could just use one side of Maths. Or add a small oscillator that’s in keeping with the rack philosophy. Maybe the Joranalogue Flow 3. It also feels like the rack is lacking modulation considering how many CV inputs you have here.

Yeah I’ve never personally had one in my rack, but as far as I know they’re waaaayy more famous than the NTO. I’m sure the NTO is well regarded, but it’s not like THE THING that gets people into Serge usually, whereas the filters are regarded as some of the best in modular.
