Mod Arturia 3u Rackbrute cases to add 74hp to your eurorack

[@impulsecoupling]

Me and my Rackbrute 3U are watching this video licking our collective chops. Nice work! All I wanted to do was relocate the PSU module to free up 4hp and heaven help us, I found this video.

Haha, mine is a little unconventional and destructive, ie, drilling holes. Molten music modular does the same but non destructively. He just velcros the power board to the back. Good luck!

[@impulsecoupling]

@@tinkererofthings I think yours is the way. My biggest concern is airspace collisions inside...seems like a lot of consideration & research for module depth is required to pull this off.

[@tinkererofthings]

​@@impulsecouplingShallow modules there. I can fit 25mm modules there if I remember correctly. You could fit deeper ones if you velcro it to the back, maybe 30mm. Many digital modules are 22-25mm: ALM, Klavis, mutable, new bastl stuff, etc. And of course, measure twice.

YOU FORGOT TO MENTION THAT IT LOOKS SO COOL! WAY TO GO!

[@tinkererofthings]

Thank you, man!!! pleased someone else likes it! It was a lot of fun to build. Kept me focused for a few months.

[@patricklundeen]

Now you just need to build a second one and double up. I actually think it looks cooler than the other case you mentioned - kind of reminds me of some of the Buchla cases. You never know I might grab one of those and give this a try.

[@tinkererofthings]

@@patricklundeen Buchla! No more complementary comment! I like that this rack limits my ability to buy more modules. I must be constrained!

[@ДаниилБрахловски]

Such a good modding.

[@tinkererofthings]

@@ДаниилБрахловски thx!

[@Yggdrasi7]

Wow incredible mod. I wish you had a making of video. Im not very handy so I'm definitely not trying it anytime soon without lots of help. In any case, well done mate!

[@tinkererofthings]

Thx! It was a lot of work and risk. There was no welding the metal back together if i screwed it up!

[@trigmusicnz]

so cool mate!

[@tinkererofthings]

Thank you!

[@TR-707]

Excellent

[@tinkererofthings]

Thx!

Sick !!!!

[@tinkererofthings]

Thx!!!

Very cool! How do you remove the red ring/link connectors on the sides of the cases?

[@tinkererofthings]

Hi, thank you. Didn't have to remove them. Just removed the fake wood side that have those rings embedded in them. But, having looked inside, there is a bolt holding the red ring bolt. Should be able to just loosen that off and it will come out.
