Holy patch points batman!

Hey Grant, is this going to be a production run? 

Very nice indeed!

Ooow my god.
I hope it is.
I am sure gonna get a nice 300 system if it is gonna be released.

Dennis

This system is a European gentleman's who offerred Grant too much
money to pass up....

  The beauty of Grant having made this system is that it has funded
the conversion of the 300 Series form factor from the original artwork
production procedure (utilizing several vendors for aluminum
fabrication, anodization, and silk screening), to the .fpd format.

What this has done is that, instead of having to order 10+ faceplates
PER MODULE, which costs $$$, Grant can make single orders of faceplates.

Initially, I am hoping to take advantage of this by having a 300
Series-type Boogie Filters made.  This shouldn't be too much trouble.
since all of the layout of the 300 Series faceplates are already done.

Speaking of the Boogie - since it is "so moog" sounding - how about a
matching highpass filter?  That would be smokin' - a 300 Series
Lowpass/High Pass Boogie....

Gary,

as you may not remember, Grant's original Boogie design, before the
1200 series started, included a Lopass, Hipass and Bandpass filter in
one 300 series module. The Hi and Lo pass filters had all the ins and
outs that the 1200 series Boogie has and the bandpass was much like a
Buchla 291, with freq and bandwidth CV ins. It also has a switch
between band pass and band reject.

A moog and Buchla type filters in one module?!?!?!?! I guess that's
all part of the "Boogie-ness" of it. ;)

Mark

PS. Does that mean Grant has offically caved to black panels now?
yuck! Or is he porting over the Celtic patterns to .fpd as well? Hey
Grant remember 4 years ago when I suggested you switch to Schäffer?
huh, no hard feelings....

BTW. I added the 300 series Boogie panel to the photos section.

I really love the idea of the Aries style modules.
I got an old Aries cabinet witch i would love to fill with those modules.
Oow i am getting to excited i guess.
Hopefully i can get a boogie filter next month.

Regards,

Dennis

To make a highpass, you just switch the location of the caps and 
the Vactrol resistive elements. It can be done neatly on the 
existing PC board, but works better with the Silonix cells, rather 
than Hamamatsu (for mechanical reasons). That is one of the 
reasons there is copper for 4 individual cells in addition to the 
Hamamatsu duals.

The Moog 904 A, B and C setup was incorporated in the 300 
Boogie design. The top half is the A and B modules and the 
bottom 4 knobs are the filter coupler (904 C).

It violates the "no dead knobs" rule because, when the coupler is 
switched in, the coupler frequency control disconnects the 
individual frequency controls on both the lowpass and highpass 
sections. I guess one could add LEDs ala Buchla to show which 
controls are active in what mode.

Mark,

Yeah, the prototype 300 filter graphic is exactly what I'm talkin'
bout....

I think that Grant has officially caved to the "whatever the customer
wants" panel design....

The Celtic patterns are already imported to the .fpd format.

Grant,

Let's do this, OK?  I would love this module!

Yeah, you can put me down for one of those, if it's produced as well.

Oh, so the bandpass section is really just another set of controls for
addressing the Hi and Lo pass sections? I thought it was an additional
filter. I guess that explains the "bandpass on" switch!

BTW. I heard that Hamamatsu has discontinued the dual cell
photocoupler. Small Bear electronics has them, tho I guess you are
able to use the silonex fast ones anyway.

Mark

I love how this banter about vactrols and such sounds so much like the
wine banter in the movie, "Sideways".  I bet you we would all be quite
antisocial on a double date...;'>

i'll sign up too.  looks like it would be a great filter.

hey grant, is there a number of commitments which might make this worth 
looking into on your end?

thanks,
kyle
