I moved from 26U wide to 36U wide - when I drew up my system as I
pictured it ending up, it took that much space (SuperMoe is a space
hog!) Clearly, I'll never be able to move a cab 20U tall and 36U
wide, so it had to be split up. Two 18U wide cabs seemed the best
choice.
My other 26U by 10U cab is sitting there unused. The sticking point
for a long time has been to decide how to do the rails. By the time I
figured out how to do them, I already knew I was going to the new
case design. So if anybody wanted the other cab, and could figure out
how to get it (it's bulky - shipping would be awkward), I'd let it go
VERY reasonably. It's stained and finished, but has no rails.
My modules currently reside in a third case 24U by 10U, just an
unfinished box left over from another synth I built long ago. Plus
they are laying all over my workbench, cos I have too many to fit!
