All these very attractive and professional panels make me jealous, but half the fun for me is having a few beers and trying to remember which jack is what. Laughing

For 2009 I'm temporally switching hobbies to home brewing for a while. Who knows, maybe the two hobbies will work hand in hand.

My 2008 has been sad for finishing anything in comparison to 2007. However I am taking the last week of the year off in order to try and ram some projects thru so they are not hanging over my head for '09.

I think I built in '08:
CGS seq/programmer
4x 8038 osc
Quad MS20 LFO
CGS sub Osc
CGS Steiner
Warp 633 ring mod
Some stuff for other people.

Oh man I'm feeling a bit sick typing this. gotta get back to work. Too much gigging has severely retarded my building schedule.

Awesome work everyone else!

In 2008 I've built:

MFOS VCO
EFM VCO4e
EFM Dual ADSR
Fritz Threeler VCF
MOTM 440 VCF
CGS Steiner VCF
CGS Wavemultiplier
trigger in/voice mods for DR 110
and I fixed my broken TR 606!

I've gotten started on another handful of PCBs, but just haven't wired them up to a panel.

All of that while raising a family and being a senior in electrical engineering! (designing and constructing a 5.2GHz Doppler RADAR and other various school projects)

In the next couple of days I should be completing a "CGS Digital Noise + Psycho LFO Module" and a "Fritz 5Pulser + CGS Tube VCA" Module

One thing I did actually manage to finish is this rack. It's an old Vector rack I had lying around. Added T-struts, a power supply I already had, and a Doepfer power distro. Then I figured out a way to mount one Frac module at the end, leaving 70HP for euro.

It's part of a longer project to make a semi portable best-of system. This frame's supply will also power some Serge panels and there will be one ModcanA frame and one frac rack. The frac and euro modules are all bananafied. Might have a couple 1ru panels with DIY stuff them.

This is my 2008 work, a dual mankato , two 2044 fonitronik one Noise cornucopia, the klee sequencer, one Th 10 step voltage reference, a power supply for the breadboards, and the desk.
Very Happy

Happy new 2009 !

Very nice sound, who does your panels ? schaeffer ?

You seen to use almost the same layout as I do with my panels, 25mm between pots, only I use 1/4" jacks.

Inventor: about the desk:

Sine: I see you use anonized aluminium? do you make the holes? If yes, how do yo do the elongated holes? I like the minimalism of your design. I feel them elegant. Do you label the front panels? Is eurorack?

About my panels, yes they are from Schaefer, I mark the holes with their software, but the label I do with this http://www.abacom-online.de/uk/html/body_frontdesigner.html and with the advices founded here: http://electro-music.com/forum/topic-20883.html
But since now i will make the front panels like the mankato ones. You can save a lot of money, and you have the option of make prototypes and also is much more fast. I bought sheets of aluminum, 1,5mm thick, and 128,5mm width, so I only have to cut one dimension, the HE, with a plumber saw and drill the holes. Very easy.

About the dimensions, it is Eurorack, but if I start again I will go for a 4U front panel. What do you think about? In any case is good for learn how to save space without compromise ergonomics.

Im using 13mm diameter knobs, and the distance within centers of the knobs are: 27mm Mankato (too little, it is not very comfortable); 30/28mm the Fonitronik filters and 26,5mm Klee. I think that the best, in order to it will be comfortable, it is not less than 30mm although if you have a non very populated front panel you can make this distance lower, but one of the distances must be 30mm.
It also depends of the size of your fingers.
About the 3.5mm jacks, one of the dimensions must be not less than 20mm.

Everybody's stuff looks so A W E S O M E ! ! ! ! ! ! Shocked

Wow! Lots of quantity too!

I'm ashamed at how little I've gotten done! And the majority of what i did fo was just buy up used MOTM modules! I didn't start until August though . . . and I still have 5 days left so . . I'll let you know in January what I got done for 2008! Wink
