Hi Richard. welcome to the list and congratulations on your entry into the
wonderful world of MOTM. Obviously, most all of us here are firm believers
that Paul's creation is the best value in modular today in a format we like.
How many of each module is a very interesting question not easily answered
as each person is likely to do something different with their system and may
have different goals. I am staying pretty close to the I'll probably need
two of everything school of thought with some modules obviously demanding
more quantities. I find that I use multiple oscillators a lot in my system
(my own tendency). So, I have 6 of them to support my goal toward a
full-featured 2 voice system. Before it is over, I expect I will want 8 of
them. And, you just cannot have too many EGs. I find I like to have
separate EGs on VCAs and VCFs. So, that is another module you may find a
need to have many.
But, the bottom like is that everyone uses their system differently. Some
guys that do a lot of percussive stuff may find they need 3 or 4 noise
modules. While 1 or 2 will suit my needs. When I only has two oscillators,
I found I use both of my 120s a lot. Now, I rarely use more than one, BUT,
that may change.
I think you will find many uses for the MOTM-320 LFO. I works well into the
audio range. I sometimes sync mine from my 300 and 120 and use it as a sub
oscillator.
There has been a lot of discussion regarding a sequencer and joystick
module. However, neither appear to be near production. Some of us are
working on some DIY stuff if you are into such things.
Best wishes and once again welcome to the list.

Hi,
I've just ordered my first MOTM modules (110, 120, 300, 440). I've
been collecting analog synths for over 20 years, but this is the
first foray into modulars. I hope to put a HUGE system together over
the next year ie. MODzilla.
My question is what kind of systems do you good people have?
Also, are there any plans for an analog sequencer, joystick or
theremin type module? Or FX modules-phase, echo etc.?
