      Hi,



Here's a few photos of my Doepfer DIY panel, Serge-style.



It's a two-module panel, but only one DIY module is wired up for now.

I've added a AC-coupled audio mixer (CGS04), a DC mixer (CGS04), Manual Gate and Voltage Source.



As can be seen, there's no decent casing yet... that always comes last. :-)



It works well, but I still need to tweak a few values here and there... Linear FM is "to deep", VCA goes to overdrive when fully AM'ed (though with a nicely, tubey sounding distortion), and I'm not very happy with the way the Slew Limiter works. Lopass cutoff has a bit of a "knee" in the higher frequencies, though I reckon there's nothing I can do about that.



But overall it sounds very nice. Warm & tender, or gritty & brutal.



Can't wait to see what Dieter is going to come up with for the expansion module...

Wiring is a bit messy, but that's hard to avoid with IDC connectors. Fortunately there's no crosstalk or bleedthrough though.



cheers,
