Perhaps it would be best to offer a 6U Metasonix subrack that also safely accomodates Doepfer, et al modules. Beyond this, perhaps offing the power supply (and busboards?) separately for retrofitting into Doepfer racks (or other DIY applications) would be enough to make everyone

Dear Dieter, I now have the Quantizers back from the shop, but they are still out. Both scales (All) track accurately (using a MIDI Keyboard and Kenton Pro 2000 as the CV source) but the CV outs change at the wrong points when in chord or quint. For example, on one, the major cho

i don't currently use the 5v for any of my modules. if my memory serves correctly, there is one rail used by the full-sized 16-pin (opposed to the 10 of 8 pin) connector that carries +5vDC as needed, yes? so the trick would be to get +5DC onto that rail at several amperes dependi
