My First Steps in Eurorack Modular Synth

Published March 30, 2021 in eurorack, music production, tech. Tags: arturia keystep pro, eurorack, eurorack modular.

I'm building my first eurorack synthesizer. I started in modular using VCV rack and this are my experiences going from software to hardware. I never owned a hardware or analog synth before. These are my first steps into the modular world, how I got inspired, and what I did to find modules using modulargrid. Listen to some of the jams I made, reading manuals, finding ways to use different modules, and thoughts on starting with a bigger case than what you need.
