Hi there
If the list you mean is this one

Then it needs at least one VCA and LFO. In fact if you opt for a P9 case
so space isn't an issue, I would suggest you look at A143-1 with gives
you 4 basic envelopes or 4 LFO's or any combination of either, plus a
A130 and a A132-1 so giving 3 VCA's.
No sure if the A113 fits with a processing rack but everything else will
work and be a lot of fun.

Bakkis & Robert:
Point noted and taken :)
Thanks guys, I will do just that :)
David:
"Add a mixer, a ring modulator and audio sources like VCO's and noise if
your not just processing external sounds."
- For now, I think i will be just doing external sound.
"Control comes from modulation; LFO's, Envelope generators and VCA's and
I promise you can never have enough of these."
- Would you not say that my list has that Could you recommend any
essential units Im already on 2100Euros on my current list :/ Maybe I
should rid of the bitcrusher and some "irrelevant" units (for now)
"It is very important to set a couple of goals you want to achieve,"
- I think my goal for my 1st startup kit, would be to be able to shape &
distort bass/synth lead sounds mainly.
