Analogue systems

....I have considered the drastic option of butchering the RS10 case to fit its 
power supply and board in one of the RS15 cases, giving me 20 sockets in one 
RS15, and 10 in the other, and a scrap RS10 chassis.

Not ideal as 10 sockets still isn't enough in one RS15 and then i'm a case down 
with the RS10 scrapped and my two RS15's would be full leaving no room for 
expansion. Seems 14 sockets in 6U is about right -  exactly what newer cases 
have! (plus doepfer sockets!)

Anybody got any old cases to sell so i can upgrade my old cases?!!! Or any power 
supply parts?

cheers, dan

Subject: [analogue_systems] Power supply shortage in old cases..

  
Hi,

I've got 2 very old RS15 (1068, 1069) cases and an RS10(1024) which only have 10 
Asys type power sockets each - seems i've got a shortage of connections to fill 
these cases and also possibly a lack of current even if i physically could plug 
everything in by using double-header power cables for low power modules.

Does anyone have any advice on what I can do? I also have some non-Asys modules 
like Livewire AFG's (very thirsty), vulcan/mindmeld, bissell connected with 
Synovatron adaptors.

I'm really hoping i don't have to buy new cases! I've asked Bob but he's busy 
with Musicmesse at the moment so hope someone here can offer some advice in the 
meantime.

My RS15 cases have extra PEMs to take another power board in the upper half of 
the case but the cases are so old that i don't think the additional power boards 
are available any more. Obviously this situation led to newer cases being 
upgraded with more Asys sockets 

and additional Doepfer sockets.

cheers, Dan
