MS2000 1U rack?

i swear to god i've seen korg ms2000 rack in a 1U form factor (as opposed to the usual 4U or 5U or whatever it is). however, i can't seem to find any references to it on the 'net. it's entirely possible i'm melding the ms2000 with some other VA like the virus (which DOES have a 1U) but i figured i'd ask here to be sure... anyone else remember a 1U ms2000?

You not thinking of the Korg Trinity rack, that was 1u?

think it could be done. the main audio circuit board is small. reminded me of the alpha juno 1 board, only with modern smd components.

i can't wait for these dumb companies to acknowledge the popularity of analogue filters/oscillators. the new synths in that case will be amazing, full polyphony, really small, etc

it certainly is feasible, but there's never been a commercial one released. If you've seen one it was a DIY project. Of course, that takes away all the fun knobs, so i'm not sure why someone would want to do that. Especially b/c ms2000 racks on ebay are only around 250 dollars.

^that's the only place i can think that you could find an answer.

thanks for the answers... guess i'm imagining it.

i have an ms2000 rack already. these days, i mostly control it via a novation remote, so i got all the knobs i need over midi. a 1U rack ms2000 would take up a lot less space, more portability... and give me additional voices, since i'd keep my 4u rack ms2000 even if i got a 1U ms2000.

buy another one put them in a drawer or box? secure it well and run the cables and power out and make it easy to move around. a lot of touring musicians do this and just mount it in their rack or use rack drawers/pull outs to not use up rack unit space.

You could build something similar on the cheap, make it light weight and its just a box with cables running out.
