This layout makes sense. I like this better than other layouts that
I've seen that have jacks at the top.

I'm considering two more options, though.

First, as I understand it, the bank boards each support an x-y gate.
None of the layouts I've seen use more than one set. It seems like
these extra gates could be very useful for rhythmic gate generation -
you could have 8 different patterns available. One thought I had was
to have an optional slave panel that would have room for the missing
gate switches.

The other idea was that I'd like to be able to use this as a 4 x 16
sequencer, but also be able to do a sequence of any number of notes
up to 64. I'm thinking this might be possible by combining it with
the CGS sequential switch. You could use the CGS switch to step from
Bank 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 on the Milton, stepping to the next bank every
time you hit the first step in a group of 16.

This is going to be an incredible project, and a great sequencer! I'm
planning on playing around with the boards a little before committing
to a panel, but yours looks great!
