Re: Front Panel

2006-03-23 by data2action

Norm,

Also, I think,  an RS-232 connector for the serial cable?

I created a folder in the files section for front panel designs.  I'm 
gonna take a shot at it, too... was planning on doing a sketch or 2, 
and post GIFs to get feedback; and then create a FPD file of a 
complete design.

Besides multiple formats (Frac, MOTM, euro), I'm imagining there may 
be more than one implementation based on feature set... fr instance, 
I'll probably build a module which I'll use as a dedicated 4channel 
quantizer; may well only need 4 ins, 4 outs, and a couple of 
buttons/leds.  but as you say, a good approach is to capture the 
complete set of controls, individuals can edit/delete to taste. 

anyway, thanks & looking forward to your contribution
