many thanks for the replies chaps
the A112 does indeed have an onboard 7805 - but don't worry, i've no intention of overpowering it
i was erring against building a eurorack simply because i didn't want to end up with yet another cabinet (my system currently exists in 7 cases and two cardboard boxes)
however with the stooge panel tradition secured, i may wait until next year and rack it up MOTM format
until then i have biscuit tins to chop up, or cut a big hole in an old DIY panel and mount it as is
then again, i do have most of the parts to knock together a eurorack, so maybe...
Julian - if you have some A112 tips i'd love to hear them - so far i'm still on the classic (imho) Severed Heads sound...
cheers

Id advise against this.The a112, being a digital module, probably works on +5v. Id imagine itsregulated down from +12v anyway, and the extra voltage at +15v may be enoughto overstreatch the regulator / heat dissipation, etc. Failure may not evenbe that quick.Julian (who has an a112 in his rack, but cant look at the pcb without ascrewdriver...)I can't imagine there's anything in this module that would be toodemanding of exact power supply voltage, Paul. Set it up with a-12/+12 supply to watch proper behavior, then give it -15/+15 and seewhat happens. It surely won't blow up. Most designs will work witheither voltage with little if any modification.Yahoo!
