Hi,

I am looking forward to building a modular system focused on playing and altering samples. The system will be sequenced by a digitone, which is also handling all of the usual synth voices. I would like the sampler to fill the role of hard to replicate sounds and textures, that i want to manipulate further by other modules. Here is where I stand at the moment:

  1. O_C 4.1 for midi to cv and everything that is missing (lfo, simple envelopes. quantization).

  2. Behringer 173, Math clone and a 4 channel VCA for further envelope generation, attenuation or sequencing the sampler (module recommendations welcome)

  3. 4ms STS for sample playback. I want to create a patch that uses playback speed, direction, pitch and sample selection for interesting sounds/rhythms and then switch to a different bank and be surprised by new and probably bad sounding audio. I think the STS fits nicely and will be at the core of everything.

  4. Some kind of filter would go here to further shape the output. I am open to suggestions, as I really have no idea what is needed here.

  5. At the end I would like some kind of mixer with line in and line out, so that I can route the final sound from digitone back into the system and record it with the STS. Does a module like this exist, or do I need multiple modules?

Here is the link to the rack:

I would love to hear some feedback on all of this. Is this enough to get started with sampling fun?
