VCV Rack or Cardinal would be the more obvious "modular synthesis" environments to try. Both are available at no cost; Cardinal evens run in the browser if you want to.
Bitwig is a crazy powerful tool, but as a modular synthesizer, it's not particularly distinguished.

It's much better than a modular synthesizer. The whole software is built around easy modulations for everything. And it also has a complete modular synth environment with the grid which is like Nord Modular on steroids. Pretty distinguished, I'd say.

They are obvious in the way that they mimic eurorack-style synths. Unfortunately that's also where they fall short: they also mimic the "spaghetti incident" mess. Some people like that, I get it, but it's not for everyone. Drambo comes with a very clever modulation system. Even Bitwig with the grid manages to keep things nice and clean with clever UI.
