That's what I was thinking. I'll probably have to add a Zeus Studio board in addition to the uZeus in my 6U rig now. If the 15 sub module system works as Roland advertises, it will be worth it. It would be like having a modular in a modular.

Another option which I will probably do is to use the Dremora's stock AC adapter and cut a hole in my case for a jack plate and run an extension to it. Here's a 2" diameter jack plate that would work for DIY: http://www.reliablehardware.com/jackplate2diameterblack14jackhole.aspx

I know this is a very new entry and it's a hungry digital module, but is the power requirement of 450mA on the positive rail correct?

The end game for this 6U rig is a fully loaded, dual-timbral/dual-voice synthesizer. I'm omitting sampling, sequencing and discrete percussion modules in favor of CV & audio modulation. Those functions will be taken care of either externally or in my next 6U rig.

The SynthTech E350 and the Neutron Sound Orgone Accumulator are my two primary timbre modules. NoiseRing, Dr. Octature II, PEAKS, and Sallen Key Filter are all capable sound sources, but in most patches I employ these as modulators. I use Intellijel Hub mults and Koma attenuator cables to save HPs.

In this rig's current state the A-135-1 VC Mixer has become a go-to module. I run the XY and Z outs of the E350 and the Main and PW outs of the Orgone into it and I get some unique multifaceted sounds, especially when all four VCAs are gently modulated. Dr. Octature will give me even more power with phase modulation of all four VCAs, in addition to the analog sine wave VCO/VCF.

WANT

Hello, if you're just starting out but you want to have a "mini cube" sized system for drones, pads & filtration, you may want to go with Mutable Instrument's Clouds & Shelves. Clouds is a "Texture Synthesizer" bit it does so many things, all very good for warping and texturing external sound sources. Shelves is an "EQ Filter" which is like a Variable state filter but a but more focused with notching and more modulation options. You might want to watch Div Kid's overview videos of these two modules together. He makes a couple of patches between Clouds & Shelves that are all-in-one drone/pad generators by themselves. Good Luck!
