Dear Bassman1805,

Thank you for taking the time to reply. There are definitely some things to consider.

To address the 3x MIA and the Pam's: As far as modulation sources go, part of my decision in including Pam's were the LFO outputs. I know that the module has much more capabilities than just an 8x clock output. I think as far as getting the most value of the module as I can is by using the Pam's in conjunction with the 3x MIA with the range of features. Envelopes, even.

Not only that, but I think the sheer range of features (noneuclidian rhythm stands out to me) will help me to narrow down my musical vision for the future.

Your comment on a matrix mixer makes sense. At this point in my build, I am approaching my budget, and I am fairly happy with my modules otherwise, but I appreciate the advice and I will think on options.

At the moment, there is no intention to expand, but as far as costs go and managing the 'invisible spaghetti' I think a powered case might be a smart option.
Lots to think about...

(Also, got lucky with filling out the first row exactly to 104hp.)
Thank you!

This also includes an external KO II and a Keystep Pro.

Finally starting my Eurorack. There were a few things I wanted to keep in mind while making this.

  1. Relatively budget, maximum I wanted to spend was $3500, which includes the cost of the case, Keystep Pro, etc.
  2. A lot of exploration, texture, and rich 'sound'.
  3. I wanted a playground to figure out what sound I like and dislike.

With the KO II, I plan to use for external drums and the occasional sample, and my goal is to trend towards downtempo ambient with deep harmony and musical color.
I would like to hear y'alls thoughts, opinions, what I am lacking, if you think anything will be especially interesting, or if you have any experiences that you think I could benefit from hearing. I am a complete novice, so any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks!
