Dear members,

some "hidden" preliminary information has been added to our website (so far
not available as links from other pages)

A-100 LCD scope: www.doepfer.de/1972.htm
A-100 universal AD/DA module: www.doepfer.de/A100_ADDA.htm

self tapping screws

2006-11-21 by Richard

Hi

I'm looking for some cross headed self tapping screws to attach doepfer and AS modules into a wooden rack rail - most I've found are too big to go through the holes in the modules

anyone know of a UK source for these - or even a part number??

they are surprisingly difficult items to source!

Richard,

2.9 mm is a standard diameter for self tapping screws and these will fit to
the 3 mm mounting holes of the A-100 panels (standard sizes are e.g. 2.9 x
6.5 mm, 9.5 x 9.5 mm and 2.9 x 13 mm). It should be no problem to get these
screws in a hardware store or in a specialized screw shop.
Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

Crossfader module

2006-11-23 by hardware@doepfer.de

Dear members,

I designed a crossfader module based on Florian's suggestions. Here is the
link for the preliminary info:

www.doepfer.de/a138d.htm

It is only a preliminary version and should be treated as as basis for
discussions. From my point of view there are three possible ways:

1. A complete module similar to the suggested A-138d

2. An expansion module that has to be connected to an existing A-138 (a or
b). This would be a little bit cheaper as the electronics of the A-138 can
be used (but not much as the electromechanical parts remain the same and the
electronics is not very expensive). For this solution the single outputs
would not be available and a little bit of soldering is necessary (2 wires
have to be soldered to the A-138). I don't think that this solution is
meaningful.

3. same as 2. but only as a DIY project. It's very simple. Most of the work
will be the front panel processing. The "electronics" is only a few
resistors some potentiometers. I can publish the schematics on the A-100 DIY
page.

Bakis, maybe a poll will be helpful (thank you in advance ... :-). And of
course ideas/improvements of the suggested A-138d.

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

Hello,

Me, somehow I really like the idea of extension for A138 with 5 channels... to make easy 
cheap 8 step sequencer with A160/161 and another A138...

2006-11-27 by hardware@doepfer.de

Alexandre,

It's possible to link two A-138 to obtain a 8 channel mixer. I can add a
corresponding note to the DIY page. Let me know if you are interested (one
integrated circuit has to be removed and two cables have to be soldered
between the two A-138). An passive expansion module for the A-138 with 5
inputs would be possible but not cheaper as the expensive mechanical parts
(potentiometers, knobs, sockets, front panel) are the same. But we will
"design" such a simple electronics (it will take about 30 minutes) and see
if there are suffient inquiries to produce that mixer expansion.
Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

Re: [Doepfer_a100] self tapping screws

2008-04-08 by Richard Scott

I am replying to an old thread. If anyone knows of a UK or German source for
Doepfer compatible self tapping screws then please shout up

they are: 2.9 mm or 2.5 mm pan head pozidrive self tapping screws (6.5mm 0r
9.5mm in length), they are also known as guage 3.

all the UK shops and componant suppliers I tried now stock nothing below
guage4 which is 3mm and too big for the a100 holes. Several places have told
me that the guage 3 are no longer manufactured - which seems
unbelievable.... but it appears to be true

Hi 

thanks for the suggestions, but I am confused about the UK screw guages.

some manufacturers list guage 4 as 3 mm which is too big for the doepfer holes and some list it as 2.9 which is fine... do any UK folks know if you bpought guage 4 or guage 3??

Sorry Richard, 
 
I have no idea what gauge, but they did the job, just lucky I guess.

Hi 

thanks for the suggestions, but I am confused about the UK screw guages.

some manufacturers list guage 4 as 3 mm which is too big for the doepfer holes and some list it as 2.9 which is fine... do any UK folks know if you bpought guage 4 or guage 3??

I am replying to an old thread. If anyone knows of a UK or German source for
Doepfer compatible self tapping screws then please shout up

they are: 2.9 mm or 2.5 mm pan head pozidrive self tapping screws (6.5mm 0r
9.5mm in length), they are also known as guage 3.

all the UK shops and componant suppliers I tried now stock nothing below
guage4 which is 3mm and too big for the a100 holes. Several places have told
me that the guage 3 are no longer manufactured - which seems
unbelievable.... but it appears to be true

Richard,

2.9 mm is a standard diameter for self tapping screws and these will fit to
the 3 mm mounting holes of the A-100 panels (standard sizes are e.g. 2.9 x
6.5 mm, 9.5 x 9.5 mm and 2.9 x 13 mm). It should be no problem to get these
screws in a hardware store or in a specialized screw shop.
Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

Betreff: [Doepfer_a100] self tapping screws

Hi

I'm looking for some cross headed self tapping screws to attach doepfer
and AS modules into a wooden rack rail - most I've found are too big to go
through the holes in the modules

anyone know of a UK source for these - or even a part number??

they are surprisingly difficult items to source!
