Possible new case option, without needing Heidenreich group buys

julianf · February 6, 2018, 1:36pm

ps if there is to be I/O on the top panel, then a case longer than 17" (84hp) would be required.

My personal preference would be that the I/O was on the rear, but ill cut whatever anyone wanted of me.

One issue that is not so easy is the card slot. That is not easy to DIY neatly. A way around this would be to cut the case roughy, and then fit a nice overlay to the back that covered the rough hand cuts.

I do not have one of the moog cases, nor a functional mbeq, so, whilst i could check the top panel, it would be hard for me to confirm the rear.

Moog case is a no go if you want stuff on the back, it has fins inside that cause problems. Ill post some pics shortly

Do you mean this 2 fins in the middle of the bottom rear plate ?

Ah too bad! Yes cannot see how MIDI i/o will fit there.

Could either panel mounted DIN sockets be used, and wired to the pcb, or those pcb mounted sockets that have the holes in them for panel mounting?

…i mean on the higher section? It does not look like it would be too close to the screens?

Hi,

Just checked Wilba’s PCB with my Eurorack case.

Not sure how this will fit

I have edited the first post of this thread with a member list - if your name is not on the list, i will not make a case for you! : )

@thanks for checking! So only with a hammer that will work
