I´m just about to order parts to build a bend matrix but have trouble finding a good enclosure. I found a really nice cheap one but it´s 12x10x2. Is 2" to shallow to fit? From pictures it seems the voltage regulaturs and jacks set the depth but it´s hard to tell..

Really looking forward to build this!! For me it has opened up alot of new thinking in musicmaking. Will use it for my modular synth, some random sequencing of diy midi synths and effect chains.

10x12x2" is what I use, mouser#546-1444-29

I think the spec page in the manual has an error, it says 10x12x3! (oh well no harm done)

Thanks! That´s the one I was looking at.

I´d also like to ask if it matters what diodes to use? I have 1N914/1N4148 and also 1N4001. Which one is prefered?

Any chance of sharing schematics for the trigger inputs mod? I´d love to have those Smile

any Si diode will be fine, 1N4001 or 1N914 are good


Sure, I can post the trigger mod schematic. It's copied from the triwave's trigger mod, but run into a shift register so it can interface on the 74HC165 bus...

Thanks for the answer! 1n914 it will be Smile

Mod schematics would be awesome! I´m very impressed and greatful that you run your business like this. Not many share their work this way. Very inspiring!

Many thanks!
