Boss Micro Rack System

Post by The_Doc » Fri Jun 24, 2022 8:41 am

These are the boxes ! I’m about to decommission my long standing home recording studio and my first job is to extract this lot from a couple of patch bays. Wish me luck :lol:

Of course, more pix will follow ! :)

Wow.

Would love to see some pictures of your studio before you pull it all apart.

What are you replacing them with?

No problem BearBoy, I’m planning to take plenty of pictures.

My studio was set up around 25 years ago and is based around a PC / an early version of Cubase. Both became obsolete many years ago.

Today, I can do everything I want to do using just an iPad Pro and a good interface. I’m planning to upgrade this to a Mac soon and look at integrating it with some of the kit from the old studio, including the Micro Rack units.

It’s a long overdue job to do and it’s going to take a while !

Cool! I'm on the hunt for an RPS-10, especially because of the Keyboard Control jack on the back that I would love to try out with the arpeggiator of my vintage KORG Mono/Poly synthesizer.

That's very cool Doc.

I wouldn't mind owning a RGE and an RCE, oh and an extra RCL wouldn't hurt either, haha.

it's fairly glitchy (which is half the fun), two things might confuse it with the Mono/poly the paraphonic mode (it won't handle chords) and octave jumping from stacked osc or fast arpeggiations but I assume you want the slight glitchyness >:)

Two RCL is a must, I would quite like a second RPH
