Probably the best eurorack modules ever
This time I bought a bunge of the in my opinion best modules for eurorack. Not that expensive, and sooooo good.
Bastl Pizza
A VCO with sub oscillator modulation and wavefolder, can be clean and also super dirty.
Bastl Ikarie
In my opinion the best stereo filter to really push character into your patches. Has a DJ style highpass lowpass cutoff, and an envelope follower that can be patched internally and also has a VCA included, all in stereo, or when patch sequentially can also filter 24db


Bastl Cinnamon
The small mono brother of the Ikarie, good enough for most use cases, and it can go into a hell of overdrive if needed.
Shakmat Modular Bard Quartet
This is a 4 channel quantizer with 8 “progression” banks, depending how you use it. I’m using it a lot when I want to switch from a simple one note buildup into a melodic sequence. It can also do some basic arpeggiation.
Ornament and Crime DIY eurorack
To save some money I decided to build the ornament and crime module of 4 Robots by myself.
I fired up my microscope and SMD reflow station and build the rather unusual 1U version of that module.
Got the DIY kit from pushermans

using my Saike 909D SMD reflow station




and completing the calibration of the ADC’s
Behringer Chaos
Adding some envelope + percussion
And another eurorack module from Reverb

Some more modules for eurorack
more Modular Synth modules
damn modular synths are addictive…..
and even with cheap modules from Behringer, things can get expensive fast….
bought 121 Dual VCF, Four LFO, 182 Sequencer, 150 Ring Mod/Noise/S&H/LFO
and the TipTop Audio Fold Processor.
Entering the Modular Synth community
Ulli, you finally got me, and I started into the world of modular synths.
After building some modules myself from plans of Hagiwo, I gave up
saving money and bought some cheap Behringer modules “Brains” and “Four Play” together with a power supply, and glued together my first self made rack from some old cabinet cardboard panels.
