Hi Antonio, I think this is a very constructive contribution. IMO, Reliable PSU alternatives would indeed be much harder to find than Eurorack components. btw: what exeactly are these custom modules in your racks ? regards Joost --- In Doepfer_a100@yahoogroups.com, "Antonio Grazi

If you want an alternative to the "high-priced" G6s I think that you might consider DIY. It' not that difficult to build a custom frame for Doepfer modules. If you are in Europe you might consider RS Components (I think they are located in UK but sell worldwide) Go to: www.rs-com

John, Welcome to the group. I'm not sure, but I don't think the MAQ works this way. It has 'one-shot' mode, which plays the sequence through when triggered with a midi note (I'm pretty sure that's how it works, I don't use one shot) but not one note at a time, which I think is wh
