that's correct.
 
i cannot make, or connect, an extra 5volts psu to the doepfer rack in order to mount the metasonix modules.
 
i'd much prefer another solution, with which i can mount the metasonix modules right away to  my doepfer rack.

I think you also need to find an all inclusive solution to the 5 volt
supply problem provided by you. 

Most people don't have the time/don't feel like they know how to mess
around with DIY stuff/ 3rd party power supplies. If you don't is going
to tremendously knock down your customer base to a small percentage of
owners that are used to doing DIY.
