Re: [Doepfer_a100] brand new A-156, the 5V regulator sticks out beyond the panel

2016-12-24 by Vladimir Pantelic

I just checked and both the Doepfer website and Schneiders show the regulator 
sticking out, so I guess it's "well known" :) still I think one should not rely 
on being able to use the airspace of the neighboring module...

as said, it's easy to fix for me, but I consider it a defect.
