<div dir="ltr">Just the power supplies, i've never noticed any individual modules running hot. I use mostly power-one or condor PSs, which have substantial aluminum frames that do a good job as heat sinks, as long as there's free convective air movement around them they seem fine without fans. imy main DIY has 3 cabinets with 4 or 5 frac racks @ - i haven't measured individual module current draw, but each cabinet has it's own 3amp supply, seems fine. <div><br></div><div>flxmnky</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Dec 25, 2021 at 9:57 PM cheater cheater via Synth-diy <<a href="mailto:synth-diy@synth-diy.org">synth-diy@synth-diy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi all, I was wondering how people approach cooling in modular synths.<br>
Specifically larger systems. Do you find that having free convection<br>
or even forced cooling is necessary?<br>
<br>
Also, what sort of power draw do your synths have?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
