Just found & joined Lemmy and so want to add to it by starting a community on a favourite (time & money consuming!) hobby: modular synthesis.
This is my current system although I'm currently building a Befaco Hexmix, Robaux LL8 and a Sonic Potions Penrose quantizer.
I have a new case arriving next month that's portable so once we can go outside and congregate again, I'm going to look at playing some shows (if I actually have any music and haven't just disappeared down a noise rabbit hole!)
2 years on and the system looks like this:
Another case by Case From Lake and plenty of modules that I managed to acquire through luck such as the ACL Sinfonion for £750!
I'll have to go through my ModularGrid page to update my racks there and post them
I really like it and think it's doors my workflow and what I'm trying to do with my modular
I like creating polyrhythms and polymeters and doing so is really easy with it.
It's not too much menu diving (each function is one menu deep or multiple functions to one key such as note / note range / probability)
There's a web demo on this page that you can play with: https://westlicht.github.io/performer/testdrive/
I know a few others that have had it and they felt they got stuck in a particular workflow with it & ended up writing the 'same song' repeatedly but that's not my experience. I also have a Metropolis (the mk1) and I definitely have that with it!
This is one of the best tunes I've heard someone write on it:

Good to know. Thanks for sharing. Have you had any issues with noise from the screen? I've seen some posts about noise from the LED.
None that I've noticed. I've got a blue screen on mine so not sure if that's made a difference
