Doepfer

I have also been wanting to make use of this extra space for mults.  
But, it doesn't seem like the back of those plates are flat enough 
to just drill and mount jacks or anything else on them. (I'd be 
happy to be proven wrong if somebody else is willing to experiment 
by taking a drill to them.)

So, I actually had a plate that is the right size to fit in the 
slight depressions on the metal sides above the "Doepfer" plate made 
by Front Panel Express (love those guys), with holes drilled for 
jacks. When placed in the depressions, this leaves just enough space 
for the jacks behind the panel.  However, while the plate fits 
there, I haven't yet figured out how to keep it from falling off:(  
Once I figure out a way to attach the plate to this spot I'll let 
you know.  Any bright ideas will be appreciated.

the A-180 Mult that I still have (I'm ony 2-HP short of space in my 
suitcase for the thing). So, I had this wacky idea: mount it on the 
black strip that is above or below the modules themselves. Has 
anyone done this? I realize I'll "deface" the logo strip, but I just 
don't know what else to do, except maybe just mount it on the outer 
wall of one side of my case. Yes, I'm that desperate. I keep 
thinking " Exchange the dual VCA for the mult? Naw. Well, maybe. No. 
Hmmm...."

Although the module isn't giving me the Buchla LPG sound I was 
hoping for, I love how the Doepfer module behaves.
