Some modular synth idea

hello to everyone, I recently bought a very nice briefcase that I would use to create a small modular synthesizer. the dimensions are about 25x25 cm and height used about 4 cm. I would like to create a modular synth that allow me to work with noise sounds like configuration and then I thought: 2VCO 1 or 2 Noise VCF, VCA, RINGMOD ... and other things to fill it all. What me? of course I would build all and I spend quite little.
should be well synth with a single pcb. I'd love to have a scope like this

The idea is to create something similar to the bug brand drone machine but in a smaller space.

Thanks in advance

well bugbrand has a lot of their schematics on their site. The drone machine uses a lot of 40106's for the OSC's right? I forget what else, but a lot of the circuits are really simple, if you look around the site you will find a lot of the schematics needed right there. After that, it's up to you to make the parts small enough, as well as the face panels etc.
