I agree! Looks great.
I would definitely concur that a trigger button on the panel would be
useful (although not essential).
The per-stage LED's would be much more essential for me.
I find the graphic by the transition-type switch to be perfectly sufficient.
Unfortunately, I seem to be in the minority by saying, PLEASE keep the
smaller knobs!!! Going to a 4U width seems a bit extreme, the reasons for
not going to a 10U height are extremely good, and I wouldn't want to lose
any of the 8 stages. Also, I would expect the knobs on an EG to see far
less real-time use than, say, knobs controlling filter cutoff, VCO
modulation attenuators, sub-octave level, LFO shape, etc. (although I
∗know∗ there's gotta be someone out there who tweaks EG settings all the
time and rarely touches the other knobs I mentioned), so the size wouldn't
be as much of a concern to big-fingered folk (to be fair, I'll point out
that I have tiny little violinist's fingers, although that doesn't prevent
me from playing bass guitar). And, actually, compared to the logically
finger-sized knobs on the other two modulars I'm using (or, for that
matter, on my old Korgs / Yamahas / EML101 / P600), I'm finding the larger
MOTM knobs to be overkill. Which is not a bad thing, just an unnecessary
thing (for me!).
