The mounting rails used in the DIY cases will be discontinued. The problem
is that our supplier has increased the price by 150% (no typing error, the
new price is 2.5 times the original price). As soon as the mounting rails of
the DIY kits we have in stock are used up we will change even for the DIY
kits to the same rails (manufacturer: ProMa) as used in the standard frames
and suitcases, but with M3 nuts inserted into the slots because that's more
economical that threaded inserts. And one has the advantage to combine
modules of different manufacturers (e.g. Analogue Systems) with Doepfer
modules (b.t.w. that's also possible for standard frames and suitcases, one
has to replace the threaded insert by a couple of M3 nuts).

The rails and threaded inserts are available from our supplier ProMa.
Details on our website www.doepfer.com > PRODUCTS > A-100 > mechanical
details. But as 19" rails are standard products such rails are available
from a lot of other shops too, especially for DIY applications as in this
case the rails do not have to fit 100% to the ProMa parts. It is too costly
for us to have all such parts in stock as standard products. We decided to
offer the DIY kits but it's impossible to have each single part available.
