Another thing to keep in mind is that each column of bandpass filters
on a 907A (and hence the 450 since Paul said he's using the same
frequencies) are grouped in octaves. The left column on a 907A is:
250 Hz
500 Hz
1000 Hz
2000 Hz
and the right column is:
350 Hz
700 Hz
1400 Hz
2800 Hz
I'd like to see this same grouping on the 450 (Moe's #1 and #2
layouts below). I agree with Moe that the LP and HP layout should be
arranged to match the bandpass layout. Whether the frequencies
increase or decrease from top to bottom doesn't really matter to me.
