Analogue systems

Has anyone fit Doepfer modules into the RS 15?  If so, are there any 
problems that I should be aware of (i.e., fit compatiblity, power 
supply, etc.).  Thanks for your help.  Howard

The Doe holes are messed up in comparison to the Analogue Systems equipment.
I believe you can get Doepfer rails that will just slide in there, but then
you'll have problems with sticking the A Sys gear in that same rack. So it's
either one or t'nother..

That covers the physical compatibility...

The PSU requirements are the same between the two (+/- 12, sometimes +5),
but we warned:  using a Deopfer PSU for A. Sys gear (and vise versa) will
void your warranties.  Doepfer and Bob do not use the same connectors, nor
the same pin orientation (what voltage goes where on those connectors) and
there have been too many miswires when people attempted to make mating
cables.  Frankly,  I don't blame either of them for taking this position.

So, there are risks involved with this.

I have heard Bob is working on a PSU which will come with Doepfer
terminations along with his own.

A far as the two working together once they are all powered up and mounted,
they sing like chorus of birdies - no problems there.

hope this helps.

analogue solutions can supply both types of connectors,
but they ship doepfer as default.

What about analog systems vs analog solutions? Are their connections 
different or the same?


Take care.

Different in the same way Doepfer and A. Sys are.   Doepher and A. Solutions
however are identical (power connector, pin configuration and location of
mounting holes).

I have a number of ASys modules in my Doepfer cases and have no 
problem with the mounting holes. Both Doepfer and ASys can mount on 
the Doepfer rails. The only difficulty is that the mounting holes on 
Doepfer are slightly farther from the edge of the module than are 
the ASys. Because of this, if a Doepfer and ASys module are mounted 
side by side, you end up with a space of about 1/2 hp between the 
modules. I get around this by not mixing ASys or Doepfer in a single 
row.  If each row is either all Asys or all Doepfer, then there is 
no problem.

No problem except you void your warranty (see my earlier post)!
