kristal= Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hi guys are their any Core32 users, who haven't got a case yet? If so, I'd like to put a SEQ4 case bulk order 2012 together. After collecting some experience with the ALBS knobs bulk order September 2012 ( ) I somehow caught the B.O. syndrome and the doctor said that he can't help me. :laugh: So would you guys like to see a professional SEQ4 case bulk order 2012? Let me know! Best regards Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shimoda Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Haven't built one just yet, working on a seqv4L currently, but depending on price might be nice to have that part complete in advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zephyrin Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hello I have understand that this case don't work LPC17core ? If it's true why you don't change the size for use the with the both core ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamouette Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 +1 Zephyrin, i'm interrested too for a LPC17 ! :flowers: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristal= Posted October 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) @shimoda: I guess the price will be in the ~90EUR range without shipping. I don't know the the exact weight of the case, but it's most likely under 5kg. So insured shipping will amount to US & World: 34,00 EUR & Europe: 15,00 EUR @zephyrin: Not sure, if a LPC17 board will fit. According to orange_hand's building blog ( http://www.sequencer...hp?f=13&t=70858 ) the LPC17 board does fit, if you don't plan to mount the board directly to the back panel. Well, I'm currently evaluating, if Core32 users are in need of a case bulk order. If more LPC17 board users call for a new case, we should do this task together. Never designed a case myself.

offe Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 I'm also very interested in a case, provided it can house an LPC17 core. I'll even be willing to switch it for a stm core if that's necessary... /offe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosch Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 i guess this is about the 17" panel heidenreich case? if NOT, i'm in! i already got a 19" Schaeffer panel but i haven't found a decent 3U case yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay... now we have the question: do people want a 17" or a 19" case? Core32 or LPC17? I'd take a 17" Core32 case for myself, but I'd also like to know what others want.

Lamouette Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 19'' for LPC17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latigid on Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 A 19" case would be great if there's one organised. I can use STM or LPC cores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take a 17" Core32 case for myself, but I'd also like to know what others want. For me, 2x case for 17" LPC17, too. According to TK the LPC17 fit is just a cosmetic issue (LCD connector strain relief doesn't fit), if that's really the case I don't really mind that. It would also be possible to re-take all the measuring and make the front and back panel slightly higher (3-5mm), but... :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nangu Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I'd be in for at least two cases- maybe even four. I want two for myself, and my two best friends will undoubtedly talk me into building SEQ4s for them sooner or later. I might as well get their cases now if you're thinking about doing a bulk order. I don't have any Core32s, so I'd prefer 17" cases that will fit the LPC-17. If the LPC-17 can be made to fit in the old cases, that's cool too. 19" cases are also fine if that's what people want- I'll be happy with any case that isn't an ugly thing I make out of cardboard. :laugh: Thanks!!

rosch Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 i got a STM32 core so it *would* fit the 17" one but as i already have the 19" panel and prefer rack mount anyway, i'd be in for anything 19" we'd come up with 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my ideal case would be something like the DSI Prophet '08 module: With or without wooden sides :) So, still vertical mount with a recess for the rear connectors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanu64x Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 DSI Prophet '08 module very nice i like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latigid on Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 From a quick search tonight I couldn't find anything like the DSI case commercially available. Maybe this is not the right idea anyway, as rack-mounted the connectors would be quite cumbersome as they have to stick out of the top when the SEQ is vertically mounted. This could be avoided with a recess, but then we're very much into custom territory with oddly-shaped parts and angles >> cost. From a tip off from Thomann do a 3U black case with 250 mm depth for 51 Euro. Will the people after a 19" case want a traditional square rack or something angled?

kristal= Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Okay, so no demand for a Core32 case bulk. I think the best solution might be a 17" case that both fits a Core32 and a LPC17. But as I'm currently building my Core32 SEQ4, no further actions from me.

TheAncientOne Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 An idea. Why not have a rectangular hole in the back of the case, that an 'L' shaped panel will slide into. Have back plates cut for whichever core you have, A bit like the optional sound modules for some keyboards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaG2k Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) hi kristal= is your bulk order question about an SEQ V4 Case like that T.K. used (17" Desktop Case by Heidenreich)? If so i am interessted in! Regards Edited November 16, 2012 by MaG2k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the people after a 19" case want a traditional square rack or something angled? thanks for the link, that looks better than the case i have here. i think traditional square will work. angled makes more sense in a desktop case. i'll try the thomann case then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebula Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Just to throw in my situation: I have a SEQ v4 board and a CORE32. My SEQ board is mostly built, but I don’t have a panel or an enclosure. I’m in for almost any case bulk order. I don’t really care whether it’s 17†or 19â€. In either case I would like a sloped enclosure, not just a flat rack. Even though I have a STM 32 core, I recognize that the future is LPC, so I don’t mind if the case doesn’t fit my STM 32. I will gladly build an LPC Core and find another use for my STM. My original order on the failed heidenrich bulk was for a natural aluminum case, which I had planned to compliment a natural anodized aluminum panel. But since I’m in North America, it seems the Heidenrich case is not going to be a viable option for me, so I would consider almost any aesthetic just to finish this project! Still, I have decided that I’m not going to order a panel (easy to get) until I have a case in my hands (hard to get). Once I have the case it will be easy to decide the panel colour scheme. A case that supports the LPC should IMHO include an opening for its ethernet jack. Also, an elegant SD card solution should exist for this! I was sad that the LPC Core was introduced without a component footprint for an SD Card slot, leaving MIDIboxers to figure out (i.e. hack) a solution for an external card slot for every build. But … it is what it is, so the case (or a relevant rear-panel design) should include the means for a sourcable SD card socket. This is all just my opinion, and I appreciate the efforts of everybody who is designing stuff. I would have created an enclosure myself but I have found myself going through an ugly separation/divorce, so realistically I don’t expect to get into the seruous DIY designing again until maybe mid-2013.

smaudio Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 I'm in for a 19'' LPC enclosure too. I've counted 6 people interested in the 19'' and 7 in the 17''. Aesthetics aside, wouldn't the 19'' suit both 17'' and 19'' users (isn't the only difference just 5.1 of cm on the sides ('B') )? In which case I would be willing to put an order through for the 19'' LPC Heindereich case if people are interested and someone helps me with the design. Would the difference between a Core and an LPC be just an increase of the width ('T') of the case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
