Hi, can anyone share where they buy patch leads, as in, the best value supplier?

I will definitely need some quite long ones, 2.5M or 3M because of the way I lay out my various machines.

I've bought a few from Amazon but the long ones there seem pricey.

I'm based in UK

Thanks for any help

Thanks for this response, I will do that.... i just wanted to check that there are no additional issues to do with compatibility or other factors i needed to know!

With kind regards T


Hi everyone,

super beginner question - my very first step is that i want to mount Moog Mavis on my new eurorack mount

this is my rack mount product plus power unit, the tip top
https://www.thomann.de/gb/tiptop_audio_happy_ending_kit_black_eu.htm

Anyway.... i see that the power in point for rack mount on the Mavis is male with 10 pins in two rows five pins,
While the scarf cable on the tip top power supply is male with 16 pins in two rows of 8

I presume I need an adapter type short section of cable with the diffent types of female rows each end?

or are there other factors that make this more complex?

Also, what is the usual terminology used to name these different formats of pin arrangement (i'm guessing it's just the usual terms, 10pin or 16 pin, but just checking)

Thanks if you can help

Thanks so much.

Mavis is already blowing my mind,
and I'm only a few days into this journey.
so I'm feeling good.

I've taken about 15 pages of written notes from watching youtube videos about Mavis
I'm now working through the notes, every page is taking me to a lot sonic places

My original idea was to take steps module by module towards a basic Doepfer setup....
But i watched a bunch of videos about Mavis, and it felt like the best starting point for learning.

In fact, probqbly the next thing will be moog DFAM, which wasn't originally how I expected things would go.

The Doepfer basic VCO may be a bit of a 'stranded asset' for a while.
But maybe not. We'll see.
My plan was to get two Doepfer VCOs, and seriously learn the principles of osc sync, hands on, from first principles.
That could still happen along the way.


Hi everyone
I'm a TOTAL beginner with zero knowledge of synths and electronica , so I hope a very, very basic question is OK.

So far I have...
1. a TIPTOP Audio rack with a power supply on the rack - it is this one https://www.thomann.de/gb/tiptop_audio_happy_ending_kit_black_eu.htm

  1. A Doepfer basic VCO A-110-1
  2. A Moog Mavis

I know i can use the Mavis in it's own case, but i want to put them both on the rack

My super basic question is, am i safe to power these two off the Tiptop's power units's ribbon connection without blowing them up

and/or do i need to know anything or adjust anything here?

Thanks if you can help!
