Hi all,

 

How many voices do you typically have in your system? I am not talking about a synth voice plus a drum voice plus a drone, I mean real VCO-VCF-VCA voices. I have 3 now and am shooting for 4. Both of mine have the following set up:

 

MOTM-300 VCO

MOTM-310 VCO (2 arriving this week to be built)

MOTM-420 VCF

MOTM-440 VCF

MOTM-110 VCA (1 has Oakley VCA but sounds the same)

2 x MOTM-800 ADSR

 

So you can imagine, or maybe know from your own system, more modules to creat another voice gets to be quite pricey and requires planning for space. Knowing this, how do you have your modules in your system arrange? I have all Oscillators in one row, all VCA-ADSR modules in the row below, and all filters in two rows of the top cabinet since I have so many of them in total.

 

I know the new MIDI/CV can be chained to support up to 16 voices I think ($$$ aside of course) and that sounds like a great fantasy. I know that my original 3 voice with 1 VCO each sounded good, but I know the extra uVCO's will make it sound better and more animated. Does anyone run three VCOs per voice? Curiously,
