Tiptop Audio / Mantis Black

Mantis is a powered case for Eurorack modular synthesizers, allowing you to build a medium-sized modular system cheaply.

Mantis is a powered case for Eurorack modular synthesizers, allowing you to build a medium-sized modular system cheaply. The beautifully curved case can mount up to 208 HP modules (104 HP x 2 tiers). It has a large-capacity power supply, so you rarely have to mount modules while worrying about the capacity of the power supply. The main unit can be set up in three positions depending on the situation in which it is used.

Whether you are just starting or are a heavy user of modular synthesizers, Mantis is a solution for modular users.

Large Mounting Space
One of the main concerns of modular synthesizer users is mounting space. Mantis offers 208 HP of space, a medium-sized space for a modular synthesizer case. With 208 HP of space, Mantis is a medium-sized case for a modular synthesizer, so you won't have to give up on the modules you want to mount because there isn't enough room left.

The mounting rails, which determine the comfort of the modular synthesizer, are Tiptop Audio's sturdy steel "Z-Rails" mounting rails. The rails include bar nuts, making it easy for first-time users to mount the modules. The busboard connectors to which the modules are connected are protected, so there is no need to worry about making a mistake when connecting the cables to the busboats.

Positioned as you like, depending on the situation
Mantis can be used in three different positions depending on the situation. The support legs allow the Mantis to be used in the 0°, 45°, and 90° positions.

Large, powerful power supply
A modular system requires a large power supply to run reliably, and Mantis' power supply has more than enough current to run a 208HP system. Mantis' power supply provides more than enough current to power the 208HP system: +12V can supply 1A in each of the three areas on the bus board for a total of 3A. Say goodbye to the hassle of calculating the current consumption of your modules.

All in Black
The black-colored Mantis has a solid black body and support legs. The color match with the black-paneled Tiptop audio module is perfect, and the coloring blends in perfectly.
