Re: JH Polymoog Resonator Panel

Jeff L, Scott J - I entirely concur regarding the vertical rather than horizontal band orientation.  Here is a revision:

As for faders vs knobs, I was working within my perception of MOTM design constraints so I stuck to knobs.  According to the Polymoog schematics, the frequency controls are dual gang pots; 10K per JH.  
A fancy version would be to use Bourns 51ABD-B28-B15/B15L, or similar.  I found some at Newark.

I assume they make dual gang Faders too.  How do they attach to a panel?  Would they require some kind of special bracket?  I've seen them in Dad's mixers, but not anywhere else.

Point me in a direction here, I'll do some research.
