Hello,
I've been thinking (well, more like obsessing...) about getting into modular synths. First, a little bit about myself to give you all a better idea of where I'm coming from: I am a college student (living in a dorm) majoring in EMAC and Electrical Engineering (read: DIY is cool with me). I don't have a ton of money, so I'm planning on building slowly and picking up modules when I can. At this point I find myself most attracted to MOTM, but I am open to suggestions.
Anyway, here are the questions I need help figuring out in order to get started:
(1) Case: How should I go about building (or buying) a cost effective case that can be easily be packed up and carried the 1/3 of a mile from my dorm to the basement that a group of students holds open mic nights in? Should I build the case from scratch or look for a cheap portable rack case?
(2) Power supply: I am considering the MOTM-900 Power Supply kit. Any suggestions that could save me a few bucks?
(3) If I can afford only one module after getting together a case a power supply, what should it be?
Any help will be apprecited.
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
