Re: 3U Rackmount Doepfer style P3

2005-03-10 by allanjhall

Thanks for all of the kind comments on my P3 :-)

Switches are from Rapid, 12mm tact switches with black square 
covers. They feel really nice and positive in use and they will also 
fit the standard P3 pcb. The engraved switches are a maplin part 
(obviously supplied unengraved!) and need some mods to standard pcb 
to fit. I'm out of the country ATM so I don't have part numbers, 
send them when I get back. 

Two rows of led's were chosen because I couldn't get 3mm tri colour 
blue led's, I got hold of some but they were wrong polarity and 
needed either a software revision or some hardware mods to work. I 
could have used 5mm tricolour or rainbow blue(I even made a panel up 
specially for them), but I tried two rows of 3mm blue & yellow and 
really liked the result. BTW two rows of led's require a new double 
sided pcb to be made, I have pcb gerbers if anyone wants to go this 
route.

cheers,
Allan
