No - I feed +/-15V from a modular system or similar

Just curious ...

The more of you are casting their vote, the more representative the picture.

The poll question is about my PCBs only. And it doesn't include those which don't leave an option. Living VCOs is +/-15V only, no choice. So if you run everything else from a wallwart, but the VCOs from +/-15V, please click on "wallwart", not on both.

Thank you.

This is something I've been thinking a lot about lately. Personally, I'm just building up my modular.
OTOH, I have a friend who has moved to mostly comptuer/soft-synths, and I'm trying to talk him into using some real analog FX. The on board power supplies would certainly be useful for him.
I voted for using my +/-15v psu, but just wanted to mention, I do like the option of on board.

And, if I did use on board, I probably would get a little toroid mains tx and build it all into the same chassis.

For the effects units and other things that make sense as a non-module I really like that you offer the on-board PSU. Please keep including that!

But why not making a own little PSU Board that would fit for any PCB ?
just prepare for pads so that it could fit also on Top of the PCBs attached with Spacers and Screws.
would that not make more sense ?


In my opinion it does.

I think that would considerably add to the cost. An entire PCB, vs just a couple of inches of real estate on a board you're printing anyway.

Plus it's just really convenient to have it right there on the board. I'm restate I'm still really into this being on the board for those projects that really make sense being built as a non-module.
