OK, the cat's out of the bag. Yes, I do plan some Buchla-based modules. First up: 292 Low Pass
Gate.

What I want discussion on is the front panel styling. One of the err..unique aspects of the
Buchla was that ∗every∗ module had a different front panel. The SIZES were uniform multiples, and
in general flow was bottom-to-top-from the side :) Meaning:

a) Inputs on the bottom
b) CVs on the left side
c) outputs on the top

Some modules have everything on the top (filter banks, since there is no CV).

So, what are thoughts about this? I want to still use the MOTM panels sizes. But I can:

a) change color
b) add graphics
c) change knobs/add colored knobs
d) not be "on grid"
e) place jacks somewhere except across the bottom

Well??
