2x300 VCOs, best damn 4 output oscillator, ever. More is better.
1x320 LFO, get the big one, the sync is where it's at.
2x800 ENV
1x440 VCF, I <3 Filters, the 440 is my fav.
1x910 Mult, you'll regret it without one
1x190 VCA
1x890 Mixer for output
1x910 Power supply
1x650 For all your CV conversion needs.

That's my recomendation. Of course, where I to do this all over again I 
might go for a frac system, but it would have to include some non-MOTM 
format modules to function.
