Subject: Re: MOTM-420 LED's

I for one would like to have the LED's present.

Maybe for the "More On" feature, a Tri-Color LED could be used. Although
this may take away from the overall design philosophy.

We must realize that the modules will be seen & heard by others, and while
visual indicators may not alway be necessary, I think in a live performance
situation, they would certainly be a help. Not to mention adding to the
"coolness" factor for the audience. (Remember the IBM system 360?)

I believe that the visual indicators can be "tastefully" done, as Paul has
shown us so far.

On the far extreme, I was thinking about maybe a skull & crossbones for the
clip LED, but another mixer co. uses that I think.

This MOTM is really taking off. Glad to be a part of it all!
