ill definitely try out vcv rack and i'll check out some more utility modules.
good idea - see my signature fort some hints!!!
also, is a clock really needed? i thought clocks were only necessary if you had a sequencer.
a clock isn't obligatory, but they are incredibly useful... especially when combined with things like switches, logic and dividers (ie utility modules) and some modulation sources - zadar for example is an envelope generator which is triggered instead of gated...

Utility modules are the dull polish that makes the shiny modules actually shine!!!
sound sources < sound modifiers < modulation sources < utilities
