duzze is a scammer, be careful.

I can send proofs to the admins in order to check that everything that im talking here is real 100%. Thanks again.

I contacted this user regarding the supposed purchase of an Erica Drum Sampler. I told him I would make the payment via PayPal as a goods and services transaction, and up to that point everything seemed fine. The price he was offering for the module was already suspicious (€185), but not only that… he asked me where I’m from to calculate shipping, I told him Spain and he only added €5. That already seemed way too cheap to me. On top of that, I noticed he has no positive feedback at all, which made me start to suspect.

I then wrote to him asking if he could please send me the photos again, but this time with a note showing my name, and I haven’t received any response. Meanwhile, I’ve been getting payment requests for €190 for the past 5 days.

I’m opening this post because I don’t know how to report the user to the ModularGrid administrators, so that’s why I’m posting here. Apologies if this isn’t the right place, but I think the community should know that this user is not trustworthy.

Best regards, and thanks.

Working great now, cheers for the quick fix!

Congrats on the redesign. Crossing my fingers that the code rework means we may get 19" rack added one of these days :)

When I search for modules I no longer see if they're already in the active rack or not

Say I'm following a certain manufacturer for the rack.. I filter by their name.. their modules get sorted by newest.. but I can't quickly see where I am up to on their releases. The old site used to give a count by the search result of how many of these modules I have already in that rack

Thanks for the report, that should work again.

hi, i have a tesseract tex mix with stereo and mono modules. i want to add an extra mono module but the cable only has 3 connectors. Searched everywhere online. Anyone know where i can find one with 4 or 5 connectors?

-- Nilbig

I don't own a Tex Mix myself, but I assume you are referring to this cable!?

A few things to consider:
- You have to ensure that the module actually supports attaching that many expanders to a single chain (EDIT: according to the manual (on page 2) 6 channel expanders should be ok).
- You need to make sure the pitch is correct (I assume it's the standard Eurorack 2.54mm pitch).
- If you can't find one online, you can easily build these cables yourself! It's actually quite simple and requires no soldering – you just press the connectors onto the ribbon cable with some pliers. Of course you have to double check the orientation of the connectors + red stripe. But it shouldn't be that hard as you already have a template.

Here are the parts you would need (links are from a German electronics store, but you can find these anywhere):

Could it be that his account got occupied by someone else?

No, very unlikely.

Others may have a different view, but my thinking is that anyone still waiting to hear back from sugarfreedaddy who used PayPal goods and servcies should consider opening a dispute and immediately escalating to a claim. Anyone who paid with F&F should see if they can initate a chargeback with their bank or credit card company.

It's a diffuse situation, but at this point I recommend what @wont says.

strange, i purchased a few modules from "sugarfreedady" in the past and all went well.
I never had problems with him.

EDITED Yesterday, 16:29

I had a problem with this seller, @sugarfreedaddy, quite some time ago.
This was reported here.
The situation was: I purchased a module, he did not send it. He was "unable" to send it, he was also "unable" to refund me.

I think that the situation was quite similar to what is being experienced here (with several purchasing the same module)

I talked to him via messenger. I had to insist a lot, during weeks, months. He was never "able" to refund me, but after weeks he ended sending me other modules for similar value.

I don't know if you guys will find a way to get your money back. I'm just writing this here to encourage you all not to give up.

Good luck to you all!

Unfortunately, at this point I think its safe to assume that this is not just a misunderstanding considering:

• The number of people having issues (looks like it could be 9 or more)
• The same module being sold to at least two people (both of whom paid) with no indication in the ad of multiples being in stock

Others may have a different view, but my thinking is that anyone still waiting to hear back from sugarfreedaddy who used PayPal goods and servcies should consider opening a dispute and immediately escalating to a claim. Anyone who paid with F&F should see if they can initate a chargeback with their bank or credit card company.

Hi guys,

unfortunatelly, I have similar experience with @sugarfreedaddy. First, smooth communication, then I payed for the module (3.4.) and since then no communication at all. Tried to write him everywhere I could (MG, email, IG), but no response. Now I see his MG accound has been suspended.

This is interesting, since I have read in this forum, that several trades were made with this guy, and some of them appeared to be flawless, and he has also quite positive feedback. I hope this is only some kind of misunderstanding.

Cheers and happy patching to everyone.

Vinx PER|FORMER firmware – update v0.4.0
https://vinxscorza.github.io/performer/
Performance-focused and exploratory.
The idea is to make the PER|FORMER feel more playable in a live context, while still keeping it open to less predictable workflows. What I’m aiming for is a solid machine for live performance, but also a crazy one for experimentation. The goal is not simply to add more options, but to push the PER|FORMER toward stronger creative generators, safer destructive workflows, better live interaction, and a more complete and well-documented ecosystem.

Sadly have to report a negative experience with user @sugarfreedaddy as of 04 April 2026.

Collide 4 was purchased on 25 March. Price listed in EUR and seller location in Berlin, but seller's PayPal account was set up to receive PLN. I confirmed with the seller that this was how they wanted it before sending. Paid using PayPal goods and services (thankfully) and added the agreed on shipping costs plus 3.7% to cover fees. When seller was hit with exchange fees that left them short, they insisted that I send an extra EUR 20 via F&F (actually ended up being EUR 21.99 due to my getting hit with the exchange fees this time). Because the price for the module was still very good, I agreed to do this although I did express that I wasn't happy about it due to the listing having been in EUR.

Seller originally committed to shipping the module by 27 March at the latest. When I followed up on 28 March to request tracking details they promised a new latest shipping date of 31 March. I have received no responses to subsequent follow up messages and emails since 28 March.

Update as of 07 April 2026: It's been 10 days without any response from sugarfreedaddy via Modulargrid, email, or PayPal messaging. I've escalated a claim to PayPal and will continue to share updates here. I feel very lucky to have had buyer protection in place. I was about to use F&F (which I frequently do) but changed to goods and services at the last minute due to a little doubt being raised at the receiving PayPal account expecting a different currency from the listed price.
-- wont

Oh, sadly you posted this on 4th of April so I did not know. I also purchased the same Collide 4 module on 31st of March (the module is still on their sale list!!!). I have dealt with this seller before, a year ago or smth. and everything went smooth back then, so I used PayPal F&F this time. So it looks like the seller sold the same module to several buyers consciously.

Never heard back from the guy via ModularGrid, PP messaging and emails...

As an exercise in Modular Grid, drop a quarter of those modules. (so that's 26hp to sacrifice)
Conceptualy split what's left into two, planning each half as a viable synth, whatever it does, on its own.
Now, with that newly freed space in the middle, fill it with utility and glue modules.
Adders, offset/attenuators, active multiples, submixers. Stuff like that.

Hello everyone !
This is my first post here as I need some advice! I’ve been using Eurorack modular synths for about a year now, and I’m struggling to achieve the musical style I’m aiming for.
Here’s my current rack:

https://cdn.modulargrid.net/img/racks/modulargrid_2860927.jpg

Here are some references for the sound I’d like to produce:

As you can see from my rack, my setup is live-oriented. I dislike and avoid modules with submenus—every module I own follows a simple rule: one button = one function.
For future purchases, I’m obviously considering the PAM. I wanted to buy The Order sequencer from 63 Studio, but unfortunately, it’s not compatible with my Doepfer power supply. I’ve also thought about the Quad Quantizer from Tenderfoots Electronics.
Looking forward to reading your advice!

I have to report this former seller @hellonwood40.
I purchased a first-model Vhikk, paid via PayPal, "relatives and friends," so yes, I'm the stupid one.
I paid for the product on April 2nd, and now he's not responding to emails.

This is the wonderful answer the scammer gave me:
"Open a dispute to get a refund!
Maybe it's too late for this talk but I'm deeply sorry :)"
perfect...

EDITED Yesterday, 05:47

Not sure if it's the sound you're looking for, but how about a Toros Iteritas Alia (10hp)?

Hey, just annouced a week ago the release of Spice : https://modulargrid.net/e/floating-knobs-spice

In short :
- It is a 12HP quadraphonic wavetable oscillator of my design.
- 4 quadraphonic oscillator engines : Phase modulation for cross patching, regular V/oct, Scale for easy melodies and Binaural.
- gritty bitcrush.
- early access so still cheap (phase 1 sold out, phase 2 for the end of this month).

It might tick a few of your boxes, check it out and if you have question do not hesitate to reach out.

Hi all,

I have MG set to dark mode. However, every time I load a new page the background flashes white for half a second before changing back to dark grey. I'm on Safari 26.4. Anyone else having the same issue?

Hey, I’m posting here in hopes of getting a response from @sugarfreedaddy as I am having problems with him as well.

I’ve seen a lot of positive feedback about him, including from people I trust, so I’m assuming something unusual is going on. However, I sent payment nearly two weeks ago and communication has largely stopped since then.

Five days ago, I received a message mentioning ModularGrid’s message limit and stating that tracking information would be sent via email. However, no tracking details have been provided, and I have not received any further replies despite multiple follow-ups via ModularGrid, email, and PayPal.

At this point, I simply need clarity on the situation. I would appreciate either confirmation that the item has been shipped, with tracking information, or a refund if the item has not been sent.
I hope this message helps re-establish contact so we can resolve this quickly.

Thanks

At the center I have the NerdSEQ — it’s the brain of the system, sequencing everything (drums, modulation, FX…). It’s a tracker-style sequencer, so very precise and powerful for complex rhythms. 

For drums and samples I use the Rample, where I load and slice breaks into multiple layers, so I can mix and switch between them in real time.

Then I have the Multigrain which is a granular sampler — it lets me take samples (like vocals or textures) and completely reshape them into evolving sounds or atmospheres. 

The Ikarie is a stereo filter, mainly used to shape and animate the sound, especially for movement and tone.

And the Castle is more of a sound source (FM-style), used for melodic or harmonic content.

Everything is then processed and modulated with CV, which is the big difference vs a smaller setup or a groovebox — you can constantly change and interact with every part of the sound.

It's like the best combo ever! :-) Let me know what you think...

Cheers!

before saying the name I want to check what you think for having paied for a module, got an envelope with some gym pants and got the proposal from the seller for being reimboursed for the 50%.
Thank you

Move Rows

We have Swap Rows in the Planner Edit Menu for some time. Now we also have Move Rows which makes a similar thing but without the swapping :)
This is a Unicorn feature.

If you know it's too cramped, why not get a bigger case? Branded cases are expensive, but have you thought about making your own? You don't need much knowledge about electronics to do this. You can find information on this online. A friend of mine has his eurorack in a second-hand metal briefcase. I have mine in a wooden case. The person at the hardware store cut the wood for me on the band saw and the only thing I had to do is put some nails in it and drill a hole for the power cord. That would open up your possible module choices tremendously, and give you a better user experience in the resulting system.

I also want to mention that Make Noise enjoys a legendary status but from a 'costs vs quality' or 'costs vs functions' perspective I'm not impressed with their modules.
Maths alternatives for half the price/A bit weird envelope generators: Befaco Rampage, Nano Arc, Cre8audio Function Junction.
I think you will really enjoy Schlappi Engineering Boundary Layer, it's slightly more expensive than Maths but has three channels and all kinds of logic functionalities, it also works as a chaotic oscillator and the envelopes are super tight.
Low Pass Filter alternatives: Takaab 2LPG, Erica Synths LPG, DUAL BORG. I recently used the DUAL BORG for the first time. It's a dual low, band and high pass KORG MS-20 with two built-in LPGs. Pretty good feature set.

You're running a mostly mono path right up to the MN X-pan and Beface Out. To take full advantage, either add more stereo stuff earlier in the path (stereo filter, stereo effects module) or swap out these modules for a quad VCA mixer or something like this. Depending on your setup, you can go straight out the VCAs without needing an extra output module.

Good luck, have fun.

Another go with the MPC Sample

While the Aeolus Seeds moves field recordings.
TipTop Buchla creating percussive sounds that also move through the space

...to be continued

Like new, in perfect condition in its original box

I agree with trying to avoid 2hp modules when you can. Especially in a small rack and right next to each other. They become very difficult to work with. I also like to get utility modules that do more than one thing. As long as you don't need all the features at once, they can make a nice toolbox to play around with. Once other thing to make the setup look a little less cramped, and this is just a visual thing, alternate light and dark modules in the case. When you bunch light and dark modules together, they can appear to meld into one another.

So good, and thank you for all your continued hard work and dedication to this marvellous place. :-)

They should be there on most module views. Sometime we run into YouTubes API limits but that resolves by itself after some time.

Hey, I just would like to share that I have released my first iOS app — Rope.

Rope is a flexible MIDI to CV converter AUv3 extension wrapped into iOS app that lets you control your modular synth using any source of MIDI signal: another AU extension e.g. a sequencer or hardware MIDI interface, Octatrack or controller.

Rope doesn’t work standalone and in Garage Band. It requires “AUM” (AUv3 host app) to launch the Rope app and a DC‑coupled audio interface (for example, Expert Sleepers ES‑8) to output CV to your Eurorack modular system. Regular audio-interfaces are AC-coupled and can’t output CV signals.

With Rope, you can quickly select a source MIDI channel and map events as:
* Gate
* Pitch
* Velocity
* Pitch Bend
* Aftertouch
* CCs
to 2 CV outputs (supported by AUM). By default it loads with Gate and Pitch.

More Planner improvements

• Fixed a bug that prevented to scroll the rack on iPad when you dragged a Module
• 1U Modules cannot be dropped in 3U rows anymore
• you can no longer drop a module halfway between two rows—it will snap to one of them. In rare cases, this may trigger the Cat of Dread.
• minor CSS fixes. If you try to add a module to a locked rack, you will now see a more visible colored warning instead of the approval thumbs-up which was unintended kind of passive aggressive.
