Like the title says, I would like it if you could give us an update on the documentation front. I myself am an almost complete beginner, so the little parts of a manual that you shared was very useful. However I am almost stuck at this point, for example I can’t get to make midi in work. I’m pretty sure it’s because my lack of knowledge.
Anyone who is impatient to have a (more) complete documentation, raise your hand!

It’d be nice to have more documentation, but until then, maybe we can get that issue resolved.
Thank you for your answer.
I tried plugging the outputs from the MIDI/cv module to one oscillator. With further research I understood that it would work with a VCA, which my kit (synth starter + subtractive add-on) didn’t include.
Now I’m thinking it’s the envelope module that I need; it’ll be my next exploration.
Feel free to help! I don’t mind noodling around half blindly though, I already got some cool sounds (that I didn’t fully understand).

For a very simple start I’ve written a short article on the basics: Instructables: Microrack Modular Synth: Basics

Nice, will check this out shortly.
You can use connect gate signal from MIDI/CV to envelope module and then connect output of the envelope to VCF cutoff input

I’ve tried out the three patches from the Starter Kit and described them in Instructables: Microrack Modular Synth: Exploring the Starter Kit Patches, Oscillator Stability and Noise Output Spectrum

This is a bit more advanced, I’ve described how to use an affordable external logic board (intended as an educational tool) as a ring modulator: Microrack Modular Synth: Ring Modulation With LogicBoard From MH-EDU-Electronics
A better choice for that is the vca mixer module in Attenuverter mode but I don’t own one of those.

We are so thankful for your work!
Sorry for the really late reply, sadly all the team had some circumstances and we just starting coming back into project.

I have one more, might be my final one. I just penned an article on how to tune the oscillator including adjusting the trimmer pot: Instructables: Analogue Oscillator Tuning for Microrack Modular Synth
Most of it is covered by the video I made for that article.
