i had  it pre-patched from Athens and closed the lid with all the 
patchcables  connected (a lot of patchcables! it was a complex patch...)

when i  removed the lid in the performing stage, before the concert, 
everything was  into place and all patchcords made fine contact and everything was 
working as  it should. 
of ocurse i did not even had to retune any vco or  anything!

so, the Doepfer modules gets my vote fully for a reliable  stage modular 
and the A100 P9 suitcase is perfect for this  job!





bakis,
tho i use a p6 portable case and a d.i.y. mini-footlocker in lieu of a p9,  
i agree that the doepfer modular travels well for performance. i agree, 
too,  that being able to travel with the unit patched up and ready to go is a 
real  convenience.  i recently watched a great performance done on a buchla 
200e  which is a sexy-as-hell synth with a slick folding case *but* guess 
what, it  doesn`t fold and travel patched !  the artist dealt with this by 
having his  patchcords color-coded and tied together in the requisite bundles 
for each  connection group. but where it took him  1/2 hour to get ready, it 
takes me  5 minutes - open case, plug into power, plug into amp and 
ready-to-go !   :^)
good news on your performances - i just completed a group of them and am  
getting ready for some more in october.
best,
dave
