That's true for an modular expert. But for a beginner it's not a bad idea to
start with the basic "Minimoog-Patch" (VCO-VCF-VCA with VCF and VCA
controlled by two ADSRs) to understand the basics. It's better to understand
the basics before you begin with the more elaborate patches what the modular
system is made for.

A typical starting patch based on the A-100 miniature system can be found
