Unless you do a course/fine tune implementation a la Dave Brown (which, by the way, seems jut fine to us), you could design the panel with enough space for the vernier and people could just use a regular knob if they want to I suppose (makes little sense to us, but what do we know, really?).

Will and I got some Bornes $20 counting dials to see what they're like. There's a pic on our construction page.

But the feature-set goes far beyond just the counting dials, of course. Jurgen suggests a bunch of ways to hook things up - Will and I chose an elaborate one that offers a lot of flexibility. Our reasoning is that if we're investing this much time and money into the thing, we want a pedal-to-the-metal implementation.

We think the counting dials are cool.
