Desktop-patchbayen som startade alltihop.

MINIBAY V2 är en kompakt patchbay med 40 punkter som ger dig en komplett routingcentral på skrivbordet, helt utan 19-tumsrack. Tjugo 6,35 mm TRS-uttag på baksidan delas upp i fyrtio 3,5 mm patchpunkter upptill, i eurorackstil, så att varje instrument, effekt och mixerkanal bara är en kort kabel bort.

Osäker på om du vill ha V2 eller Minibay S24? Läs vår jämförelse sida vid sida.

Layouten bygger på ett enkelt arbetsflöde: instrument på rad A, mixerkanaler på rad B, effekter i FX-raderna. Uppåt till effekterna, nedåt till mixern. Tolv normaliseringsomkopplare sitter under en liten lucka med två skruvar på ovansidan, en ställ-in-och-glöm-lösning som låter A/B-par passera automatiskt tills du patchar något nytt. Två inbyggda passiva 3-kanalsmixrar med egna patchpunkter sköter snabba submixar utan att du lämnar bayen.

Det mesta kopplas in med vanliga insertkablar, två monokanaler per bakre uttag, och det är så MINIBAY V2 får plats med så mycket routing på en skrivbordsyta. TRS-kablar sköter stereo och balanserade anslutningar, och patchpunkterna sitter med tillräckligt avstånd för ett bekvämt grepp, även med tjocka fingrar.

Passar bra ihop med

It's for everyone. And it's almost perfect.

Very simple in a beautiful way. Size, functionality, number of patch points, normalization, layout – all of it feels just right 🙂
I use it in a small synth and guitar setup, and it opens up a whole new world of building interesting effect chains on the fly, even for live use.

My only critique: the jacks are quite inconsistent (a mix of 3.5 mm and 6.3 mm). Some feel a bit janky and almost wobbly, while others are so tight that you really have to force the cables in, some even slightly angled. I might eventually fix some of them myself if it keeps bothgering me.

I also hope the MiniBay gains the popularity it deserves so the price can come down a bit – it’s quite steep for what’s inside IMHO. I could easily see this becoming a top seller at thomann. This is not only for the fancy syth connoisseur, it is for everyone!

After Buying cables there will be great flexibility :-)

What a cool device, I've only found it quiet late.
Now I am patching CV outs from Synths to the modular rack and audio into filter and external effects much more often and easier.
Thanks for this great little box.

Nice design with quality issues

I love the design. It makes it easy to change my signal flow whenever I feel like it and allows me to patch my desktop synths into my eurorack.

The quality is pretty bad, however. The first unit I received was conpletely unusable in normaled mode, because the signal was cutting in and out (pressing on the top panel affected the signal). Unz Unz sent me a replacement which has a similar issue in one channel, but seems to work fine otherwise.

I highly recommend Unz Unz, as they have great customer service, but I can't recommend the DF Audio Minibay because of the issues.

Great tool!

It's a handy little patch box for the desktop studio. Tested with a synth and 3 effect pedals. Plus I run a Zoom CDR-70 as master effect. Just connected the inputs on it. The dip switch on the top is a good improvement since the V1.
