I think I will get a patchbay. I presume it has to be TRS and I don't want it to be normalized. As for setting of switches in foogers by having cables plugged in I either pressume I can get around this or still leave just enough space to disconnect them if needed.

Modifying a Moogerfooger MF-107 for rack mounting

Post by mattsynth » Tue Jun 09, 2009 3:06 pm

I am going to modify my MF-107 by cutting the front plate at the bends in two places. I will then have 3 plates (in/output plate, main face plate & foot switch plate) This will allow me to rotate the inputs and outputs so that they face forward. The wires will have to be lengthened to accomidate the extra travel. I will also make the switch plate much smaller or even change the foot switch to a toggle switch and mount it on the face panel. Then I can throw away the foot switch plate. The in/out put plate & the main face plate will need to be clipped back together some how. That is the part I have not come up with as of today. Any ideas out there? I would like to post this process on the forum. This is Bob style designing.

If it is like the analog delay, then some of the jacks are mounted to the board - not simply wired.

Good response, that would put some real soldering work into this project.
Thanks.

I think this thread should have been titled "Show us your rack".

Here's my shorty mic stand mounted moogers:

This is for OLF Audio,

I know this original post is from 2009, but I just saw the picture of how you have racked the CP-251 on your Hosa desktop rack. Where did you get that particular rack that is holding the CP-251? I'm looking to get one exactly like it. I can't find it anywhere on the Moog website.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply, but that's not it. The one shown in the picture seems to have a shelf on the bottom part and some kind of metal netting.

Actually, that is it. If you look harder you'll see it's just a mesh 1U rack plate directly below the 3U VX/CP rack.

Wow, you're absolutely right. I downloaded the image and enlarged it--that's exactly what it is--thanks very much.
