What

Eurorack modular synthesizer. We have a 3U 19" case in which we can experiment and play with eurorack synth modules. The back also has rails. If we put in threaded inserts we could put modules in the back as well, might be nice for 2 person patching madness.

Powah

Our modules are powered by a USBPowerThingy. This is a USB powered busboard with 6 connectors (3x 10 pins and 3x 16 pins). When we run out of space or juice, we can look for another solution. The board is mounted, the location and manner is not ideal, but for now it'll do.

Niz ordered a possible upgrade. This uses a 12V AC brick which we have. It can be attached to power connectors on a piece of stripboard.

Modules

Progress \o/

Supplies

There's a little box with screws and washers and it will contain more ribbon cables in the future.

Todo

  • Add sliding nuts to back side for more modules
  • Add better PSU, possibly using the 230V connector on the back and switch on the front (USB brick inside the rack?)
  • Put a top cover on the rack
