MOTM

Hello List!

I am also planning on mounting my PS on the rear of my case(s).  My plans call for case(s) with 12-inch deep sides and, even though I plan to mount my modules 1/4" back from the face of the case(s),  I figure this should give more than enough space.

The attached bitmap shows what my current system will look like when I find time to assemble my 410s.  This is rack 1 of at least 3, maybe 4, that I hope to eventually build!  Even though this diagram shows the PS in front, the finished racks will each have a Power Supply on the back . 

I do have one question I would like to throw out to the list.  Has there been any discussion about how you would group modules in the racks?  For example, is it best to follow a left-to-right, VCO-to-VCF-to-VCA arrangement, or are there better ways to do this?  Any input would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I don't plan on any deep modules *except* the sequencer (and that's just a
definite maybe)

They are ~4 1/2" deep behind the panel. I would say allow at least 2 inches
from the rear of the
power supply to the rear of the modules.
