Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: MOTM

A couple of people have expressed interest in the Milton step
sequencer. I've spoken with the designer and it seems feasible to do
a stooge panel. However, there is a big issue that folks need to be
aware of - pot spacing. I mention this now because some folks are
fanatical about the MOTM large format layout.

The pcbs are set up for modcan - type spacing, since Cynthia got
first crack at building them. The pots are only .75" apart
horizontally. This is less than the UEG, which is .875". I don't see
how even the smaller UEG knobs would fit. Vertically the spacing is
open to adjustment, since each row has its own pcb.

I don't know for sure, but I think that the fp is already going to
run 10U wide, so it's doubtful that there is even room to spread the
pots by mounting them offboard. Who would want to wire 32 pots up by
hand anyway?

So given this caveat, if you are still definitely interested, contact
me offlist. I think it's a great sequencer, but I'm personally still
gonna build SuperMoe <g>.
