Thanks for your response.
I don't necessarily need to stick to this small frac rack format, but
if Im building the modules myself, I probably will. I don't want to
limit myself to only frac rack size modules, though.
I am still learning the electronics, but I have considerable
construction skills. I can solder and I can make the panels and
brackets and all. I've put together a lot of various electronics kits
over the years. Another hobby of mine is designing and building RC
airplanes. Not quite the same, but involves some electronics and
fabrication. I wont, however, be designing my own synth modules any
time soon.
Im thinking about ordering a kit or two from Blacet, but am running
into the same problem Im having w/ picking out the CGS modules. The
more I read and try to decide what I want, I more I think I need all
of the modules :) (and Im trying not to spend too much money)
