I've uploaded a file "TLN-156_2.fpd" in the files section. I based it
on Richard Brewster's 3U wide MOTM 480 expansion panel. I changed the
text and the arrangement to match the standard TLN-156 panel as seen
on tellun.com. I used Dave Brown's HPGL tick marks for each pot, and
coded my own HPGL box for the SERIES/PARALLEL switch.
If anyone's interested, I'd appreciate it if they'd review it to see
if there's anything that seems wrong or out of place. One thing I
didn't bother doing was to make the tick mark numbers smaller than
the knob labels. Also, the name of the module (at the bottom) uses
the same size font for both lines, instead of the second line being
slightly smaller. These could be easily changed if anyone wants that.
Here's the price breakdown:
1-4 = $105.58 each
5-9 = $95.02 each
10-19 = $84.46 each
These prices don't include shipping or tax. As long as the person
buying this isn't in Washington state, tax shouldn't be an issue. I
don't know what shipping will be, or the cost of shipping individual
panels out to people if they want to do a group buy. Hopefully, it
would be less than the price break for bulk ordering. Anyone know the
cost of shipping (in a cheap yet safe way [USPS?]) a 3U FPE panel?
Another thing someone mentioned is the possibility of seeing if Moe
can give us the Corel file for the original TLN-156 artwork, or even
better, convert it into an HPGL file and send it over. That could
make this panel much cheaper. I think I read on the MOTM list that
he's on vacation now, so maybe this can be put on hold until he comes
back.
Anyway, I'm going to get 2 of these eventually. To get the price
break, we'd need at least 3 more of these being ordered. I'm willing
to undertake the group buy if it seems feasible.
