I really hate the FPE panels. I've a (lovely) Oakley
EFG-Deluxe sitting here among all my MOTM stuff, and can't
stop noticing it. The finish of the panel is just butt ugly
imo. So if possible, please please continue to make panels
with the original MOTM finish. Those just look awesome, a
good match with the sound.
I'm more relaxed regarding the graphic design of the panel.
I wouldn't mind a little more 'busy' design as long as it
is done with good taste.
The biggest problem I now have with my MOTM modular is the
fact that the modules do not have any separator lines, like
the vertical stripes you see along the long sides of the
dotcom modules (and original Moogs I guess). I still hope
to find some sort of light colored or metal strip that I
can insert between the modules. Alternatively, a panel
design with a box drawn on it, or just two vertical lines
would do equally well I think.
