do you know anyone using these frames?
are you sure the mounting height is correct for euro modules? |

I have a bunch of these rack frames that I picked up for some other projects, they are the correct hight for Euro modules (129mm between the front protrusions) but the module mounting holes are 2,5mm (Doepfer uses 3mm) the spacing of the holes looks correct, they just use smaller screws.
If you take the rack "ears" and flip them to the "back" of the rack, you can then fit Frac panels to them. |

| Eurorack is a DIN standard for electronic (lab) equipment, and Schroff is actually the company who makes the mounting frames for Doepfer. So yes, the modules will certainly mount just fine, you might just need a bit different screws, and a +-12 linear power supply and bus boards from Doepfer or someplace else. |

Just bought one. If its awesome, I will be buying many more. I'll keep you all posted.
I am stumped about what PS to go with, I need one that is a) safe, b) 110/220 compatible. So I think I may go the wallwart route.

You can look for a power-one on ebay.
Check if it does + and - voltages.
These can be regulated between 12 volt and 15 volt. |

Thanks man. Do they only make Linear PS's or do I need to pay attention to that?

So do you use that same supply in your cases? Did you have any problem mounting them in the case?
