Hi Matteo, in the beginning you won't do anything wrong with any 
preconfigured systems by ASys. They simply have experience with what 
is needed.
However if you want a custom system: 
You could copy an analogue synth which functionality (not sound) you 
think good. This way you know which modules are needed for a replica 
of the functions (while you have much more possibilities bcs your 
one will a modular). To this basic configuration you could add 
whatever you missed on that particular synth (e.g. the MS10 only had 
1 EG while you always needed 2). Definatily you'll need 2 VCOs for 
certain techniques like cross modulation (i.e. to modulate them one 
another).
However, I've noticed in the past that people who are new to modular 
synth underrate a module like VCA or even basics like EGs, LFO, but 
concentrate on sound sources and filter. You should be aware that 
Mixer and Multiples will help to get more out of a given selection 
of modules. I think at least 2 EGs and VCAs a must while the rest 
depends in choice and quantity very much on your personal likings. 
Hope that helps, Ilanode
