[sdiy] Odp: Re: Euro Synth Spec

[Roman]

Why bother with color jacks since whole eurorack is a mess!  Power source - no specs at all, power cable - crap, power connector - mistake, mounting screws - M3 or M2.5 or inch-something, various rail types resulting in different srew lenght requirement, rails with or without lip, mounting holes in if full HP or half-HP location, sliding nuts - insanity, panel thickness and materials, from 1 to 5mm, and I haven't even touched CV ranges, neither in/out impedances, this list can go on and on.  And anybody considering standarize jack colors? Gimme a break. How about uniform font?

And keep it simple, just red, black and blue, more becomes messy, IMo   Sent from my iPad   On Oct 20, 2017, at 11:41 AM, Vladimir Pantelic <vladoman at gmail.com> wrote:   except for the Doepfer range, no other module I have uses these right angle Cliff jacks.

A quick way to tell  outputs from inputs would be nice, though. Something like the  Cwejman S1 but using brightness rather than hue. Eg white for  outputs, black for inputs.   ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org   ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org
