Moog Modular Expansion & Power Requirements
Posted: Sat Sep 14, 2019 11:31 am
Hello all,
Playing with the idea of futuristically adding a third upper cabinet of 22MU of modules, all moog, similar to something like this, so I know its possible(not practical ): https://moogfoundation.org/wp-content/u ... ogue-2.jpg
Mine would be some combo of a 960 sequencer, 962 sequential switch and some other filters, EG's, VCA, VCO modules from a model 15. Basically downsizing the portable tolex cabinet and combining a custom set of moog modules in a walnut cabinet with more space for a few modules of expansion down the road.
Theoretically, how would this be powered? The current 930 Power supply Where would it connect to since, 1) the cable isn't even long enough to reach from that high 2) there are only two extension cabinet ports on the back of the System 55 or IIIC. Would this have its own power supply rather than Obviously, I know some customization is in order here and information has been difficult to come by to say the least, particularly on moog systems.
I am aware of Synthesizers.com cabinet, but I do not know if they make a custom power supply specifically for Moog systems with +12v -6 rather than +15v -15. Synth-werk may have some answers too but I'm looking for anyone experienced with suggestions on how one might proceed? I sure wish that picture had a photo of the backside!
