Each of my cabinets has one or two power supplies of its own. Each cabinet has the MOTM-900 or 950 panel mounted on the back with the power switch, which is normally left in the on position. I run the AC power input of all to a common switched, surge-protected power bar and use that to turn everything on and off. The top cabinet has a MOTM-900 and a MOTM-950, each with their own distribution boards, which I mount on the cabinet instead of on the supply. My middle cabinet has one* Power-One* HBB15-1.5-A supply. It connects to a MOTM-960 21-connector distribution board in the center of the cabinet. Only the modules on the ends need a 30-inch MOTM supply connector. My large dot com cabinet has one 3A supply, Power One HCC15-3-A. I use one MOTM-960 21-connector expansion board, plus one of the 12-connector boards from a MOTM-900 supply. The 960 is wired to the supply, and the daisy-chain connector on the other end is wired to the 12-connector board Sta-Cons. I used #14 stranded copper wire. Between the power supply and the 900 and then to the 12-connector board is about 15 inches each of that wire. Most of the modules connect with the standard 20-inch MOTM power connector. I use a few of the 30-inch ones. My cabinet page has some pictures. The three at the bottom are current. http://www.pugix.com/cabinet_new.htm Richard Brewster http://www.pugix.com jneilyahoo@... wrote: > How is everyone else doing it on those big Synths Of Doom I keep seeing > in pictures?
