I might go w the Pittsburgh 360 so I can fit my Mescaline and other modules with a little bit of room for some small stuff later, but I really want a 12u w a flat bottom so I can put the Circadian and a touch controller in there.
dooood i LIKE my PitsMods! VERY cool.

i'm going to list my 270 studio case when it gets closer to my DNGR BUTTS shipping, but going to TRY to do local handoffs first.

because OOF shippin a rack. yikes.

Yeah I did a bit of google works today and found an 84hp 15U w power for $700+/- (can't remember exactly). 420 hp might be a little TOO much. Wtf would I fill the extra 180hp with?!? I know I kinda want a eowave drone or the Grendel drone commander, but that still leaves me with 100+ hp empty!

420 hp sounds exactly right.

Proper synth doom can only be made with setups that are some multiple of 420hp

also, curious. are there any good earbud headphones for music workings? i've always used over ears, but it would be a little more convenient in bed with smaller ears.

murp?

:cry:

I'm just worried that I'd feel the incessant urge to fill 'er up. I think I'm gonna go for it anyways, that Sputnik controller would fit reallllllll nice on the bottom row and take away 84hp of NEED

"Other" might be Dixie ii or noise engineering sinc
If you're really into FM and pure analog waveforms the DPO is fucking sweet. It really does a lot and the workflow is nice.

Also the Mangrove doesn't really do the wavefolding sound per se, but it does has a lot of timbral variety on tap in a pretty unique way. The thing that I find really awesome about it is the behavior at around 1:55 - 4:00 :love:

Got an incoming new controller that i've been eyeing for quite some time (ever since i fell in love with the Ondes Martenot). Johnny Greenwood had one of these made when he decided he didn't want to take his Ondes Martenot on tour with Radiohead and they released a fairly small batch at that time. Really excited about the possibilities this brings into opening up the performance aspect of my modular system. This will be here on Friday.
