Thanks! yea, I was thinking adding more switches, multiples. with 1850 at +12 am good now, so will put vco in next case. : )



Hey fellow synth enthusiasts!

I'm currently in the process of expanding my modular synth setup, and I could use some guidance regarding power consumption. My current setup, has been running smoothly with a power consumption of 1850 mA on +12V and 850 mA on -12V.

Now, I'm excited to add another VCO. (Coral)
I want to ensure that my power supply, the x1 PSU3, can handle this additional load without any issues. As it stands, my setup is running comfortably with the existing modules.

+12V: 1936 mA
-12V: 863 mA
5V: 0 mA

So, my main question is: Will the x1 PSU3 be sufficient to power my expanded setup with the added VCO, considering the new power consumption figures I've mentioned?

Thanks in advance for your help!


Thread: PSU upgrade?

Hey!

I have noise problems in my rack. It's okay on studio monitors, but I hear that hum when using headphones. I have a cheap PSU now - Meanwell RT65B x2 - and decent bus boards.
Will a PSU upgrade change something? I was considering the Doepfer A-100PSU3 linear PSU. Any experiences?

My Rack: ModularGrid Rack


Thanks for answering!
Noise is with res off to, and if i use no lfo its there to.
If I use only filter + mixer i can here it when i am moving cutoff.
Funny thing I got it working. If I put filter out to mixer and vca to filter in there is no more noise. (intellijel quad vca)
Now i can go full volume and all good..: ) i dont know why this works but it does..


Hey, I have 2x meanwell rt 65 b P/S. (9u case NANO BUS BORDS)
I have really bad noise problems. I puted 2 ferrites on wires before they go in bus board but it didint help.
Am looking on NKP (noise killer plugs), but not shure will it help.
I have noise only on filter modules. I user erica synth vcf1 and wasp filter.
If I put lfo in filter cv input then filter out to mixer (no audio input in filter)
I can hear lfo sweeping noise when audio is at 30%+ I need put my Volume at 20-29% so there is no noise.
If Only Filter module in case noise is there to.
