d00D!!

Lose the bypass switch and LED, and make it 2U.

Other than that it looks great :)

If you insist on wasting an entire panel unit (which would be one less 800
for many of us) just for a bypass feature, then at least include a bypass
jack. Otherwise, I don't see what could be done with a bypass switch that
couldn't be done with patch cords and a typical monitoring setup.

If the 450 is 2U, anyone who buys two of them would save enough room for a
full-fledged MOTM-700. You sell more modules. They get a much better
system. Everyone's happy :)
