"This is an old analog modular synthesizer from the EML Company. Many people from the 70s will recognize this - very common in schools and universities as an alternate to the big Moog and ARP modulars of the time."

Interesting place for a knob. Anyone know what it's for? Tuning?

Dopefer A-100P Analog Modular Case

"The A-100 basic frame with 6HU is available even as a portable 6 HU suitcase version without additional charges. The portable 6 HU suitcase version has the same usable space available as the normal basic frame (i.e. 2 x 84 HP). The suitcase is available in two versions:

Version 1: In this version the mains inlet is located at the front in the lower row at the right side. In this version one has to subtract 8HP for the mains inlet in the lower row (i.e. only 76HP available for the lower row). The advantage of this version is that the system is closed all around if the cover is put on and that it can be used in vertical and horizontal position. Even the mains inlet is protected during transportation. The disadvantage is the reduced width for the lower row. And some users do not like the mains inlet at the front.

Inside the removable cover there is sufficient space for both versions to carry the system completely patched or to move patch chords and the power cable. The A-100 suitcase can be used vertical or horizontal as the suitcase has rubber feets on the bottom and rear side (version 2 only vertical because of the mains inlet at the rear panel). The top is equipped with a handle.

The A-100 suitcase is made of black or grey coated wood with aluminium extrusions with the rail construction fixed to the other parts of the suitcase (the delivery time for the grey versions is about 4-6 weeks). Attention! It is not simply an empty wooden case that covers the standard 6HU frame but a completely independent construction that is not based on the 6HU standard frame. It is not possible to convert a standard 6HU frame into the suitcase version !

The two bus boards and the standard power supply are mounted at the rear panel. Consequently the rear panel cannot be removed.

Measures:
outside approx. 460 x 330 x 175 mm (without cover and rubber feet)
outside approx. 460 x 340 x 220 mm (with cover and rubber feet)
inside usable depth for A-100 modules: approx. 80 mm in the power supply area (bottom right), resp. approx. 100 mm in the remaining area (measured from inner side of the front panel until end of the pc board of the module)

In the area near the power supply (bottom right) no modules should be assembled that are sensitive against transformer hum. We recommend to assemble only control voltage modules in this area (e.g. LFO, ADSR, trigger delay, clock divider/sequencer, sequencer, slew limiter, MIDI interfaces and so on) but no audio modules (VCO, VCF, VCA, VCP, frequency shifter, ring modulator, spring reverb and so on). Even modules width increased depth (e.g. A-113 or A-126) cannot be assembled in the power supply area. They have to be placed in a position outside the power supply area. But this applies only for a few modules. Normally it is no problem to arrange all modules by mounting modules with smaller depth in the power supply area."
