Hey, go for it! :-) Best of luck with it.

butchered and consequently partially-functional TB-303).

Hi Phil
well i may partly agree but ...
-- the AN1X can be found for 400 450 euro for as much as i like it
i certanily can't say is a classic like a Jupiter 8 or else
so i dont feel so guilty in modifying the cosmetics (and if i do it
.. i will do it pro-way :-)) besides it was also manufactured in cheapo
plastic .. and maybe is me but i like functional mods ,
they make the things more personal unique and more useful
(In same insane moments i even tought to redesign with knobs only
the all panel of my Jupiter 6 so that i keep more space on the
right for .. extras .. !:_)
-- the space on the right that u mention is alredy busy with my QY70
that fits there perfectly ! besides as soemone mention already on
here ,that space can be use for a dopfer pocket or in my case i tought
already to strip down a JLC fader master from faders to pots and fit it
in ... we will see !
-- If i do as u suggest i will loose the combined funcionality of both
pedals and panel contros, cos i wont be able to wire internally
(ok maybe I can replicate the 3 jacks on the back) .. still i
wouldn't like to have a floating box around for a mere
2 knobs and 1 switch
... i am in the mood .. i think tomorrow i will go for it :-)
i have all the parts here (very very small) and made alredy pencil
signs on where to drill :-) . .. so i will keep u up to date
.. with some pix as well hopefully
ciao
