Stefan Breitenfeld has updated his online modular synthesizer planner:

The all-new Modular Planner v1.1, which is a complete redesign of the (ancient?) original version, is now finally available. The most important changes are:

• new design & improved usability (at least I hope so)
• forum included
• mostly MSIE-compatible
• Google maps with dealer and manufacturer locations (to be extended, make suggestions!)
• first multi-manifacturer version (thanks to all of you for your support)
• exchange rates loaded directly from ECB
• atch drawing engine (beta).

The planner should make it easier than ever to make your plans for world synth domination.

Breitenfeld adds, “Enjoy it and feel free to link to it, report bugs and module updates, contribute images, patches & experience and make suggestions for further improvements!”

Elby Designs has introduced a new line of Eurorack format synth modules, based on Ken Stone’s Catgirl synth designs.

The range will consist of completely re-designed PCB’s adapted for the smaller format of the EuroRack system. We will be offering both fully-assembled modules as well as Component and Hardware Kits.

In addition to the CGS modules we will also be including a number of other designs.

Panther modules will be offered in the following options:

• A fully assembled and tested module ready to plug directly in to your EuroRack system. Power supply connection is via a Doepfer A-100 compatible connection.
• A COMPLETE component kit. This includes the all board for the module, a Front Panel and all the components required to fully dress the board(s).
• The Front Panel. A high-quality 2mm aluminium panel with photo-etched black printing
• PCB Set. A full set of PCBs as required to construct the Panther module

Details at the Elby site.

The world of Eurorack modules is getting crowded!
