Doepfer

Julian,
 
I have used the Doepfer bus boards in my commercial racks, and used
stripboard for my homemade modules (although I plan to buy some of the
Oakley bus boards for my homemade/MOTM modules - neater and more robust
- long stripboard sections feel a little flimsy).
 
Your PSU is quite heavy (although it does depend on your modules needs).
If you get a short or glitch in the PSU problems will occur. You could
put some lower ampage fuses in line, say 1.5A. this may help protect
your valuable modules (tip put them somewhere it is easy to get at, they
will blow eventually, use anti surge of an appropriate rating.
 
Regards

enclosures
	
	
	Hi there,
	
	Just a quick question for those of you whove done away with the
G6s and
	G3s...
	
	Are you using doepfer bus boards, or have you made your own out
of
	stripboard and IDC headers?  Now i havent looked at the bus
board layout
	yet, but i know the connectors are 10 pin, so analogue and
digital grounds,
	plus and minus, cv and gate.  Thats six, which meens cutting
strips, or are
	the Agnd and Dgnd combined?  Yes, i know i can look when i get
all the
	modules out, but id rather work it all out before i start
messing :)
	
	I didnt really want it to turn out like that, but the psu that
ive aquired
	is pretty high ampage, at about 3.4, when i was aiming at about
1.5.  Am I
	correct in thinking that the only real disadvantage of this is
if i get a
	short somewhere more dammage will be done?  Im thinking that
under normal
	running conditions, the headroom will not be a problem?  Im also
thinking
	that its not a good idea to run a psu at max, but then again i
realise 3.4
	is a little excessive for this applicaiton.
	
	Obviously im hoping evreythings in order, but if its not, then
please do
	tell me :)
	
	Cheers, Julian.
