I'm not sure if the current MOTM filters go counter clockwise.

You really should have a VCA (I think we are awaiting the new MOTM 130 dual 
VCA at the moment, the MOTM 110 VCA/RM having been retired). You also need to 
have envelope generators (like the MOTM 800). Generally it is recommended 
that one should have two EGs per voice (one for the VCF, another for the 
VCA), but I think even more are useful when you start to get a larger system. 
Additional ones will allow you to sweep the frequency on your VCF or VCO, or 
modulate the pulse width of a VCO, or modulate the VC Q (if it is available 
on the particular VCF).

After you get an initial core of say seven modules every additional module 
you get will make a large difference in the way you can use your system.

Good luck, and welcome!
