Doepfer

Hi all

Yes that was my Euro Serge system, Ken Stone started out with banana 
plugs then worked out to drill the plastic jacks...so now my system has

Banana Jacked euro modules
drilled modules
and 2 mults that are half banana and half not tampered with

see here

so any of the doepfers that gave the lack jacks are now bananas via drilling

Ken Stone is a smart cookie
