ModularGrid is one of the most popular online communities for modular synthesizer enthusiasts. As a database and planner, it allows users to build virtual racks of modular units, whether it's drawing the settings they want or showing off what they have in real life. Match your virtual rack to the specifications and requirements of each module, and the website will determine how much power you need, how big your rack must be, and the full cost of purchase.

The resulting grid may be aspiring, just like Richard Devine's current 57-module on-site setup, but the 6,954 Eurorack modules on the website have 178,422 combinations (and counts), and there are many levels of inspiration available— —From ordinary to extraordinary.

Below, we will show some virtual racks of Reverb team members, including Justin DeLay, Theron Humiston and Will McEvilly. Find the settings of thousands of other musicians on ModularGrid.
