POST a picture of your AE modular!

ben apologies if you've already seen it, but check out soundofyou.eu/tangible-waves - they have a lot of modules in stock

Here's what my rack looks like at the moment

Well spotted. The resemblance is uncanny. Gaëtan are you by any chance the reincarnated Poul Gernes? 

I had a little paint session with my daughter haha. I have some more blank panels coming, will have to do it again.

Ahhh that’ll be roundabout: github.com/MattKuebrich/roundabout

It’s a standalone thing but i rammed it into a module because the dimensions were basically perfect

I have a few videos which are actually linked on that github page (as faux cyrillic)

The most uttered words by modular sysnthesist...

Hi, It was a while ago that I bought the system but I've been pre occupied with life matters and am just coming back to this.  
I built a cabinet using a doweling jig. I used pine furniture wood and I stained it, remembering what I used to in wood work, at school but I should have used varnish in retrospect. The staining was a long process and didn't come out as good as I'd like, but I'm pleased with it, it works well. The leads from the keystep pro go up behind the cabinet and thru holes in the mounting boards, nicely in to the synth.



You can see the doweling on the 2nd pic. It's not glued so can bang it apart with a rubber hammer.
The 3rd pic shows handles on the side so I can pick up the whole lot and move it easily.
The 4th pic shows the back where I can recalibrate with ease and store a mains extension lead with all the plugs.

Thanks, it's such a dark oak stain but it's OK. There is a rosewood stain which would be really psychedelic but is a bit too much for me.
The base board is fixed as is, 40cm wide, the keystep covering most of it. The space behind the keyboard is full of wires and essential storage for the plugs while moving.
The synth bolts on to L brackets that are bolted for strength to the mounting boards, not screwed. I drilled the holes a smidgeon wider for the nuts and bolts. I had to countersink the brackets too. If I used smaller M4 nuts and bolts, no extra drilling would be required. but I wanted to be sure and went M5. Maybe M4 would be good.

...edit...

Just to add more info about this, the dowels are 6mm and the drilled holes for them are 6mm in diameter, ideal for the 18mm thickness of the wood. I put plenty of dowels in and it's so solid, I could have done it with less. The sides are 20cm wide. I've got wood cut ready as an extension to add an additional single row above too, for 3 more modules and to add a bit of space, I like some blank spots around the place to break it up a bit


...final edit...

It was a while ago I did the brackets, so just remembered a few useful details. I did have to drill the brackets a bit wider for the synth bolts to go through as well as the bolts, so I bought a 5.5mm drill bit, (for steel) to do that. For the dowel holes, I bought two 6mm drill bits. One pointed, to pierce the wood first to start off the holes, to get an accurate start while using the jig but then changing it to a normal one so the pointed bit doesn't go through the wood on the sides and for a more defined hole depth. The drill bits that came with my drill-driver were wobbly and just crumbled a lot. I just managed to countersink the brackets for the bolts before the countersink crumbled.
If I wanted to strengthen the cabinet, I wouldn't glue it, I'd use more L brackets to screw it all tight. I still have the wood cut-outs from the sides, so could make a cover for the front which could buckle on...
