I think you all know my arguments for 1/4".

There's only one thing I would like to add:
If I would ever build a Modular again, I would use *stereo*
1/4" jacks and make all inputs and outputs symmetrical.
* Avoids a lot of trouble with hum
* Fully compatible with standard (unsymmetrical) 1/4" connections
* Not as expensive as you might think: A one-opamp differential
  input stage would be enough for rejection of low frequency
  (i.e. hum) common mode signals.
