-The RackBrute is a great case, but the [[https://tiptopaudio.com/mantis/|Tiptop Mantis]] is even larger (two rows of 104HP each, neither of which has to host a power supply), has a beefier power supply (+12V/3000mA, -12V/1100mA, +5V/300mA), //and// is \$25 cheaper! Plus two of them can be combined in the same way that the RackBrutes can. It is a bit shallower at 50mm in the upper row and 61mm in the lower row---all in all, no big deal for the modules I have in mind. +As much as I wanted a Tiptop Audio Mantis case, I couldn't wait any longer and went for an Arturia RackBrute 6U instead. It's a perfectly fine starter case, and I can always double up later <del>if</del> when I need more room. Interestingly, I have somehow managed to overshoot the width by 1 HP on both rows. It's a little tight, but everything still fits.

 +The Listen module produces an awful hum on both outputs, even when their levels are completely down. I thought it was poor noise filtering on a power header, but it has returned since disappearing briefly. I've ruled out proximity to the DATA and my desk lamp's USB power supply as possible causes. More experimentation is necessary.

-My current system contains a broad range of features, so my goal with this system is to dig deeper, specifically into generative experiments. I want more modulation opportunities, effects, and control. Oh, and more synthy textures. With that in mind, modules are grouped into update phases according to how they fit with this goal. Links to items I don't yet have can be found in the [[:wishlists#toys]] section of my wishlist.
