A BPM Clock module such as ALM Pamela's Workout or ProModular Cloq can be used to keep all your sequencers in sync.
You may also benefit from a syncable LFO (i.e. A-145 or A-147) instead of the A-146 module (which is NOT syncable); this will allow you to (e.g.) reset filter sweeps at the beginning of each bar.
I would also invest in a clock divider and a clock sequencer (i.e. A-160 & A-161), both of which my be used to generate timing/sync events.
I would like to make autonomous it modular, to synchronizer both sequencers, but I do not know how can it be done?
Who would have a simple idea?
Thank you in advance
Just added the Fonitronik MH11 ADC Sequencer - Absolutely BRILL piece of kit !
Now I can make atmospheric drones (a la Eowave Titan modules) AND super-funky sequenced rhythms (with all the rest) !

Hi Fitz!
I think a lot of people here on MGN would be glad to offer thier opinions and advice, however, any advice would be premature without knowing the intended purpose of your modular system;
Will it be used as part of an existing home/studio setup ?
Will it be primarily monophonic / duophonic / polyphonic ?
What type of external controllers will you use ? (MIDI Keyboard, USB link to a Computer, CV+Gate Sequencer, Ribbon Controller. etc.)
Will it comprise classic synth modules (VCO - VCF - VCA, ADSR, etc.) or more experimental / combination modules, or a mix of both ?
The more info you give the MGN community the more it can collectively help you.
So I am interested in building a euro rack, but don't really know where to start. Any advice for a beginner would be appreciated.
I'm just getting started with the whole modular thing. I've been using this little system along side an MFB Tanzbär and an Arturia Microbrute. I just moved out of a cozy little Pittsburgh Modular Cell [48] into the Doepfer case. From Claustrophobia to Agorophobia. I'm a little overwhelmed by the possibilities of what to purchase next. I'm kind of thinking about a Pittsburgh Oscillator, a Manhattan analog mix, and a Manhattan 4x4x4. Basic stuff. Later, I want a ridiculous sequencer like a Z8000 or a René.
I'm desperate to know what strangers on the internet think about my setup, and hope they will guide me in some way.
Current configuration of our demosystem that can be checked and repatched in our store in munich! Blind plates will be changed next week for incoming Intellijel modules and we really hope that the furthrrr coming soon....!!!
Hey, I know I've seen your rack before! Ha. Check mine out... 
Nice to see another obessive Frac Rak user! btw, I updated quite a few Blacet, PAiA and some DIY images. Feel free to get in touch and visit https://www.facebook.com/pages/Frac-Rak-Users/221539761320648 ; All my best, Sean / dJ dAb
Three more to go!...

This "mega easel" system is comprised of three original buchla boats. Don Buchla was commissioned by composer, Jon Scoville, to build this system in the mid 1970s. I aquired this from the original owner around 1989.
Anushri will not be eurorack, but this will simplify planning.
swapped out shapeshifter for a Braids. super happy! instantaneous awesome.
Just finished a module trade with fellow wiggler. Swapped out my "haven't touched it in a while" Optomix for a MFB Drum 04!
addes SCMBO, LP1Lightplane, Short Bus v2 ! absolutely loving it!
Recently: switched out the Rubicon for a Piston Honda MKII.
and added a 4ms SCM.
ReArranged whole case as is seen in this grid update.
added Quad Clock Distributor and Optomix recenty. case is developing nicely.
shapeshifter has arrived! 1st 6u system is complete!!!!
now to dig in deep! thanks for the inspiration everyone.
Yo Sunfalls! You need to shift each module in your rack 1HU to the left - you appear to have "gone off the rails."
first 6u of mobileControl 12u case just about done.
picking up korgasmatron II today, and still waiting on Shapeshifter to arrive.
shapeshifter on its way. picked up a PEG. really getting excited for this journey
picked up and slightly filled up the monorocket mx104 today. thus far. the wiggling is sweet.
still mucking about in the planner. i already have the kilpatrick k4815+kmidi, maths, uzeus.
planning on getting a monorocket mx104, so i can expand over time.
Currently planning this mobile unit. I want flexible sequencing of vco's and the ability to send cv/note to Ableton Live 9.
Without an A-154 Enhanced Sequencer Controller you may want to throw in a couple of switches, the Doepfer A-150 and/or A-151, for example.
And while you're about it, slap in a Doepfer A-160 Clock Divider and an A-161 Clock Sequencer (all four modules only 16U).
Also, if you're looking for the epitome of non-randomness, a logic module (or two) like the inexpensive Doepfer A-166 or the Intellijel PLog or Spock modules, possibly also a pattern generator like the Pittsburgh Timetable or Mutable Grids 'Topographic Drum Sequencer' or just about any other Euclidean sequencer for that matter, particularly the RebelTech Stoicheia and Klasmata, and talking about sequencers, you could probably make good use of a MakeNoise Rene cartesian sequencer, and you could do with a Mutable Anushri voice module ... Er. ... and you'll probably gonna want another 9U frame. ...
Just installed the Eowave modules and they're absolument magnifique!
The Zone B.F. dual LFO is quite cool but would benefit from CV control of wave-shape.
The twin Titan VCOs sound brill when driven with separate pitch-VCs from my Dark-Time sequencer.
The Magnetosphere filter's CV inputs make for some magnificent yowling and screeching sounds, but I found the VCA a little too discrete.
Stoll-on tomorrow night and a long weekend's worth of wiggling - let's see what these babies can do.
The Memory Manager replaces the zoom switch with a button system so you don't need both :)
I might build this if I can sell my Roland Jupiter 4 at a good price. It's in being refurbished as we speak.
Just received my first modules. Mainly I'm going for the drums, I will use my Analog Four as a sequencer ('til the 4 cv will be enough :)).
This is a PulpLogic Lunchbox build of an Etherwave Plus Theremin Voice.
Outs (headphone, stereo, are on the right)
The Theremin control inputs will require customization:
Three 1/4" Jacks on left, labeled Vol, Pitch & Gate
Vol CV 1-10V IN maps to 6 buffered outputs, taking 1 1/2 tiles
Pitch CV -2.5-4.5V IN maps to 6 buffered outputs, taking 1 1/2 tiles
Gate up +8V IN maps to 4 trigger outputs (using Gate-to-trigger circuit)
The Etherwave Plus Gate Up is converted to Trigger for these reasions:
It's only immediate use is to trigger Syncs on oscillators and LFOs
But, we want to retrigger Syncs on other events
An OR circuit would never fire further events if the Gate was connected and always UP
So, we convert Gate to trigger, so it is normally zero, allowing other triggers/gates to fire
Drool Factor Nine-Hundred, Man!
But my bank manager would have me defenestrated.
Over nine and a half grand before you even see an electricity bill.
@FSK1138 Calm down man! I'm not into YouTwitt or MyFace either, and I'm certainly not implying that you can't have an opinion - just that your opinion in this particular instance is unencumbered by recognisable facts. Also, it's patently obvious from your "This Is Real" rig here on ModularGrid that you must be into amelodic "experimental" music. Who here isn't, to some degree? I'm not averse to experimenting in the studio myself, I have a dual trace oscilloscope in the corner of my studio workbench.
As for the eternal "Why am I here?" Good question! It's been puzzling mankind since our ancestors first developed cognitive thought, but I'm sorry, I don't have the answer to that one.
If you mean why am I here on ModularGrid however, the answer is, exactly the same as you! Whether you use chaos theory and a bunch of MakeNoise modules or prefer the classic 'subtractive synthesis' and sequential melodic approach makes no difference, in the long run. We're all here because we love synthesized music and either plan to take, or have recently taken, the plunge into modular systems.
Why haven't you got a MIDI-IN module, guy? It's the only decent use of a MIDI cable, to turn passionless digital data into, polytimbral, multitonal analogue audio vibrations. ... But that's just my opinion.
@FSK1138, the man who apparently owns a couple of Pittsburgh Sequencer modules, but who blithely states that "sequencers are overrated" and continues with the broad assertation that "you can do everything with lfos, adsr, fu[n]ction generaters [sic] and delay" - Surely not! You can't program a specific melodic sequence into the collection of modules you mentioned, unless you want to spend hours patching together an elaborate array of function generators and observing the results on an oscilloscope. The only part of your comment I can agree with is your closing statement.
Keyboards? Who needs 'em?
"Go without a sequencer," you say? Are you a comedian? I'd rather go without a bloody keyboard!
I saw Tangerine Dream on their Rubycon/Ricochet tour in the mid-70's and was hooked on sequencers after hearing what Chris Franke did with 'em. I also saw Pink Floyd on their Animals tour in '77 where they performed the track 'On The Run' from the Dark Side of The Moon album (I'm listening to it ATM, BTW), which contains perhaps the most famous 8-step sequence of all time, using an EMS Synthi AKS. Like I stated earlier, I'm a tiny bit Old School!
My ultimate system would include an Analogue Solutions Oberkorn stand-alone sequencer as well as a plethora of Eurorack CV sequencer modules like the TipTop Audio Z8000 Matrix Sequencer, at least two Pittsburgh Sequencers and maybe even a MakeNoise Rene Cartesian Sequencer, among others. Not to mention the trigger/gate sequencers such as TipTop's Trigger Riot, either (or both) of the Euclidean Sequencers from Rebel Technology, or the upcoming and mind-blowingly monster Doepfer A-157-1 Analogue Trigger Sequencer. Add to this all of the peripheral VCOs, VCFs, VCAs, Envelopes and Drum Modules and your looking at a pretty large modular system and a correspondingly large hole in my bank account.
Talking of rhythm/trigger sequencers, I've just today been in contact with Mickey Delp regarding the purchase of one of his Delptronics Trigger Man modules which should be in my grubby mitts sometime in October. I'll soon by saying 'bye, bye' to the SR-18!
I've just looked up the Elektron Analog Four and it looks real cool!
