Behringer 2600 - first impressions

[The Elf]

The case has arrived. I'm very happy with this. It wasn't cheap, but this guy really knows his stuff and has created a truly fabulous piece of work.

It will hide the hateful PSU (a special request of mine) and make the whole thing just so much easier to home:




It will be a little while before I get around to putting the 2600 in here, but I'll drop another couple of photos when I do.

Very tasty!

Definitely jealous of this one.

Yeah that's nice. Looking forward to seeing it installed!

[Folderol]

Very nice work there.

What’s the 12v socket for? Powering something else - say a keyboard?

That's the input for the external 12V PSU. I had my custom version made with the IEC socket added, and will be fixing the PSU inside the case, so I won't be using that socket.

That looks great! Will it house just the 2600? Or will it also hold the Eurorack modules as well?

[BJG145]

It only takes the 2600 inside it, but it will have a disembowelled 2500 on top of it, with hedgehog bookends to hold the modules in place.

(I want those bookends ....)

For a while I thought that I should have allowed for the 2500 modules, but I now feel I'm happier with keeping them separate - and I'm going to make them a standalone 2-tier synth in their own right.

But I've also had a third thought...
