hello all (again)

my cabinet is double module depth, with power supply at rear) - it must be
around 12" deep (including patent "Oakley Lip" to protect pots in case of
dire emergency in transit). i haven't had a problem with cabinet movement
even with a three row high system - i think the secret is weight, what with
10mm MDF on an aluminium frame, the bugger has too much inertia, also a good
sturdy set of rubber feet helps

oh yes, and if you put the VCOs at the bottom and EGs at the top it keeps
the centre of gravity down :-)
