Planning a small rack for my home studio. I was hoping to use it to create evolving pads and textures; to process/mangle outside audio (field recordings, guitar, sounds out of my DAW, sounds from my Microbrute); and to get my guitar pedals into the action. It would be great to have all my hardware and software working together fluidly, and to keep having reasons to return to the rack no matter what I'm working on.

I have the Clouds, Wogglebug, uVCA, and Pluck, plus a Pittsburgh Modular Lifeforms SV-1 system that I'm considering selling. I also have that Microbrute, which is very useful with its CV/gate out.

Still new-ish to modular, so any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Is there a better way to go about this? Thank you!


I'd sell Clouds soon, specially with Clouds 2 in the way.

Any way, the E352 is a powerful voice, and with the Microbrute, you're covered there. Maybe a more hands-on sequencer like the Voltage Block (straight forward) or the Rene (more deeper and with cool live input)? Or maybe the Nebulae V2 or the Morphagene for audio processing, if you're not that much into melodic sequencing.

It depends, but it seems like the right direction.

I would just point: Pulp Logic 1U tile are not compatible with Intelijel ones!

Soo... you're here, after all.

...and it's not like a rig that small really needs a buffered mult anyway. My suggestion would be to pull the Output tile and the Pulplogic Buff Mult to get 16 hp, then fill this with an Intellijel passive mult and use an Intellijel 2 hp blank to fill the row out. Then, keeping the existing 3U stuff, add to that a 2hp Trim to adjust the Clouds stereo out levels down to line level, and that should do it. Gives you a pair of passive mults and stereo passive line-trims for your output.
