[sdiy] Rack mounting Korg DSS-1

[Richard Wentk]

Is that main board in two halves with an edge connector, or is it one really wide board? 

You really don't want to be cutting digital boards in two, or extending traces with wiring unless there's good buffering.

It *might* work, but it's just as likely to become more of an electronic problem than a mechanical one.
