First, I think this is a great idea to bring this type of synthesis to
the MOTM line.
> a) change color
Please don't.
> b) add graphics
Only if necessary. I actually don't care for additional graphics on
panels. Keep it simple.
> c) change knobs/add colored knobs
Change of size OK, depending on function.
> d) not be "on grid"
Also OK
> e) place jacks somewhere except across the bottom
No jacks on the top, please. However, if there is room in the next row
above the existing pot level, this is fine to save panel space
