| CLRS | Introduction to Algorithms, 4ed | $80 |
A solid (and beefy) reference text, considered canonical enough that it's often referred to by the authors' initials alone. A 5th edition is now available, but I haven't decided whether I'd prefer that one. |

I prefer the original 1974 release, but I suppose the 4AD reissue is acceptable. |

I have never seen a copy of this. Ever. |

| Chet Faker | Built on Glass |
Or as I prefer to call it, Boobs on Glass. |

Will probably be very expensive. |

| Empress Effects | ZOIA Euroburo + desktop adapter |
Might skip the desktop enclosure and go for a powered 4ms pod. I definitely don't need it, since I have the regular pedal version, but… |

|
| boredbrain | Xcelon | boredbrainmusic.com/… | $900 |
Hoo boy, if you thought the Hexmix was gorgeous (and expensive), then wait until you see this beauty. Should probably put it in its own dedicated case, like the 4ms Pod48X. |

| Tiptop Audio | Stackcables | controlvoltage.net/… | $5 |
One can never have too many Eurorack patch cables. Red and up are the sizes I need. |

Passive 6-input combiner using diode OR logic. |

|
| Acid Rain | Navigator kit | acidraintechnology.com/… | $50 |
Not going into eurorack 1. It could be fun to have a bunch of these in a skiff dedicated to CV processing. Also available as fully built modules, but the kits are half the price and twice the fun. |
| Molten Modular | Motion MTR |
Could get in 1U if I get a case with 1U rows. |
|||
| Molecule model kit |
Mostly so I can make models of psychoactive compounds as decorations and statement pieces. Because most interesting compounds are quite complex, I may also require some extra pieces. |

| 4ms | MetaModule | controlvoltage.net/… | $650 |
A physical module with VCV Rack embedded; includes virtual versions of other 4ms modules (and is of course compatible with other VCV plugins). |
|

Will not be going into eurorack 1. |
