I was conversing with Larry some time ago about doing a generic panel
on his next run - a 1U with 4 knobs and 4 jacks, and a 2U with 8 knobs
and 8 jacks. I was thinking of tick marks for the knobs, center
markers for the jacks and knobs, and a thin white alignment line where
the legends would be. You can print white text on a black background
on adhesive-backed labels, cut them out, and place them over the
alignment line. I cover mine with some clear tape prior to cutting
them out. They look reasonably nice if you cut them right at the text
edges. This 'hides' the edge of the label and the white lines would
give you an alignment reference.

This is similar to the MusicFromOuterSpace Universal Synth Module
Front Panel but would have the tick marks. To me, panel thickness,
black, and tick marks are the requirements for reasonable
compatibility.

Obviously we never got to the next run. I'd buy some of these.
