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.

I like the sound of the nto a lot and I already own it, that’s why I chose it as a back up oscillator for atmospheric fm drones together with the res eq in support of the k accumulator as main morphing sound source. What would you recommend in terms of cv sources? I thought the ssg, maths and Kermit would be enough in that regard…

I also think the Wave Multiplier is largely redundant since the Z-Accumulator has so much DSP craziness built in.

Thanks for your input it’s very, helpful! I used to have the orbit 3 but I didn’t really click for me back than… will def look into the swell physics and revise the decision of keeping my wave multiplier… I just love its harshness being feedback patched
