It has several different positions to mount in. Very unusual to say the least.
But they are all pretty cool. The problem is that to really use the
equipment, you need access to the jacks (as stated above). When mounted, the
jacks are inaccessible unless you have 2 - 4 spaces above the unit open.

Out of the 6 or so mounting positions, I like the one where all of the controls
extend beyond the normal FP plane. In this configuration, it works best at the
bottom of a bunch of other equipment because the several rack spaces below it
are extremely obscured.

While it does have additionally functionality as stated previously, it is not
as full-featured as normal modular (eg. MOTM) units would provide in terms of
tweakability.

The manual has some really unique, cool graphics to explain how the unit
functions. The best are how the 2 filters allow things to pass and not pass.
