    Yep that’s as minimal as you can get. The sad part is the power box costs more than the modules! You did a nice job! For technicaly three pieces ( you have to include the sequencer), I loved it. When I bought my 100 system I wanted every single module and two 112s and it’s a great way to kill time! Adding a Neutron and a 2600 you can do just about anything. That’s 11 oscillators and not a real expensive rig. Didn’t stop there but a smart person could have! Lol

    just started building a modular. Plan is to go as cheap as possible. I'm using the behringer 2x VCA and 2x envelope with the LFO (like the one in the video), with a 4ms Ensemble. With a minibrute and old guitar pedals to fill in loose ends. seems worth it.

      Amazing setup, love the Minibrute sound, and even more if processed with guitar pedals to give it such a wonderful warmth.

      @@mata_ funny part is, minibrute was ONLY used as midi-to-cv, sequencing, and audio out. I did modify it and added a LFO out, which i used pretty often until I got a PNW. But I'm just bored of subtractive synthesis in general. Sick of it, really. I'm really enjoying my setup of the Ensemble and now recently, a bunch of doepfer a-110-4 vcos.
      Anyways, I loved your minimal setup. There's a lot of fun pushing one like that to it's limits. Brings out the creativity.

    I much approve of this little setup. I gave up on powered cases (too expensive) and have started building my own and use the Behringer CP1A power supply. Perhaps a bit overkill for such a small rack, but still cheaper! By the way, no point adjusting the "delay" on the LFO because it needs a trigger in 🙂. But a great demo to show of how well these 100 series modules (still) sound. And yes, the tuning knob is definitely a problem with the 110. It is so easy to accidentally hit it and detune the lot. A shame roland never put a "random" setting on their LFO in the 140 or the 150, having both the sine and triangle wave is unnecessary, and it would have given you immediate access to some S&H like behaviour. They did this in their later synths.

    actually, now i am thinking about that $90 behringer curved triple row 80HP rack.
    like the two Least Expensive 80HP synths are the 1) Kobel Expander, and 2) the TORO...just add 3 ) the Syncussion SY-1 when behringer releases it.
    then re-patching isn't so much....the drums and bass being direct tweak........( and OMG, the Arturia Beat Step Pro is the Same Width !!!! ) ... would that be nuts or what? the problem is, i am in the middle of building new guitar rig.

    actually, that looks pretty good what you have there ...i bet that's less than a Plasma Voice, and looks a little more modular....i would have to hear both.
    i am still thinking that 80HP Behringer SY-1 ( kick snare synth ) and a sequencer module would be part of a first go .... but the SY-1 isn't even out yet.

      Yeah, cases are the biggest ripoff with modular. A decent empty case costs as much as regular monosynth (and even some polysynths). I build my own using redwood and aluminium angle strips for less than $40, but even the cheapest power supply will set you back over $100.
