An addendum to my previous post on the success of powering an R-51 with a TipTop uZeus:
I've since acquired an R-54 and a Doepfer G6 rack to power both, but still have the TipTop uZeus, so I thought I'd just try and see if it could happily power both the R-54 and R-51, and it was successful -- a uZeus can power both. How much juice is available after powering those two, I don't know.

Have you heard of adding another PSU to a G6 case?
I think I read that on the g6 manual , I'll check
if a g6 can run 1.2a x 2 of power...
...How many R modules can fit ? according to the size : only six right?
but which six? can it be 3x R54 top row and R51, R53, and R52 on the other row? |

No. A G6 only provides 1.2 amps of power. I explained that in your other thread.
The monorocket Mission 6B cases provide 2x1.2 amps.

No. As explained in your other thread, a G6 can power 4 R modules reliably but it depends on which modules you select.
6 is probably pushing it and not recommended or guaranteed to work.

The tubes require 3X the power to heat up, so you need to allow headroom for the tube heaters.
An R54 uses 250mA, but on power up it can use up to 750 mA.

No. If you want more power you need to get a case that supplies the maximum power.
The new monorockets have dual power supplies, that is what you want if you want more than 1.2amps that the doepfer's provide.
Please don't buy 6 modules and be disappointed if they don't power up in your G6. _________________ |zerosuminertia.com| |

Hi Zerosum
Yes I remember that , sorry if i didn't explain myself well.
I meant how many R modules can you put in a G6 case if you install a second PSU in the case? I remember I read about that in the g6 manual , I'll better check that or ask Dieter in the yahoo forum.
I have an extra g6 at the moment , the monorocket is gorgeous but i'm just trying to save money. If it's not possible then I'll get the monorocket M9B in black colour  |

| assigning one 1.2amp psu for each row in a G6 case looks a bit complicated for me. I'll get a big monorocket! thanks. |

As requested, here is a repost of info on the new Monorocket cabinet that is intended specifically for Metasonix R modules.
The Mission 9M is specifically designed for Metasonix modules, and particularly the new R-55 oscillator module which, on its own, draws enough current to shut down any other eurorack power supply on the planet. This power supply puts out a whopping 8.5 amps (8500mA) on the +/-12v rails and 8 amps (8000mA) on the +5v rails! It truly is 'The Mother Of All Eurorack Power Supplies'! The M9M power supply is an internal universal supply (100v to 240v) so this case can be used anywhere in the world.
Bus boards include both standard sockets and Analogue Systems type sockets for easy connecting with no adapter cables required.
Monorocket cases use the sliding-nut mounting system which eliminates any gaps between modules by different manufacturers.
The M9M includes mounting screws and IEC power cable.
The standard color will be Metasonix Yellow, but you can custom order pretty much any color you can imagine.

this is great , but it seems that the BCM guys don't like to send these outside the States. We have to find our own way to get lots of yellow in our systems.  |

Can anyone here speculate about how well the new monorocket M6c ps might handle Metasonix modules?
I was considering the M9M, but realistically it is too much case for me. I've got an R51, R52, and an R54 (of course there would be other modules but no high draw digital ones.) Any one of the R serries in my Zeus powered case introduces an unacceptable ammount of hum. I've got an M6c on order, but now that I see it is a switching, not a linear power supply I worry I may encounter the same problem with the monorocket as I've had with Metasonix modules and my Zeus.
Thanks. |

5V Power module for Metasonix R-55 modules:
http://voltergeist.org/
| Quote: | | This 2HP module allows you to add 4 amps of 5V power to your Eurorack system. This is enough to power up to 2 Metasonix R55 modules. They are available in black, blue, or yellow. |
