The Doepfer A-100PBK is a Eurorack case, relatively identical in construction to the normal A-100PB, but with a keyboard inside the lid.
The 94hp wide case is in Doepfer manner of high quality and comes with clean power and two busboards around the corner. The interesting thing here, however, is the keyboard housed in the cover. A Fatar 37TP/9 with semi-weighted keys and monophonic aftertouch. The keyboard is connected with a 3.5mm stereo jack cable to a 2hp module, which can be placed freely in the case. This module converts the information from the keyboard into a MIDI signal which can then be connected to a MIDI to CV module of your choice (3.5mm stereo jack according to new midi standard, midi channel 1, lowest key = midi pitch 36, note on/off and aftertouch). Jumpers can be used to select which of the two common standards is used with the 3.5mm midi connector.
A truly portable case that can easily be used in conjunction with a P9 to create even more space for modules.
