Modular Synth Panels

So...  If stooge panels were available again, who would be interested in them?

Doug

If you are talking about reissues of existing designs, sure.

I missed the boat on some Blacet to MOTM conversion Stooge panels 
(Binary Zone and Filthy Filter).  Without the Stooge panels, and without 
the 4-pot long Stooge brackets, and also the fact that Blacet now longer 
sells "bare" kits without the panel parts, I've pretty much given up on 
those.  If I could get the panels and brackets again, I would consider 
doing those conversion projects and maybe some others.

With Oakley modules available again, no doubt there would be interest in 
the Multimix, etc., too.

@Richard: I have about 3 Short and one long 4 pot here which i have  
no use
for. Those are from stoogeindustries. if you'l like them contact me

@all,

since my engraving guy just quit business (cncpanels.co.uk) i just  
have one - slow -
alternative besides schaeffer. i'd rather like to have the MOTM alike  
panels.

Given the list on http://www.wiseguysynth.com/larry/panel/gif.htm

i'd like to get :

- Blacet Miniwave ( http://www.wiseguysynth.com/larry/panel/jpg/dh- 
miniwave-vc.jpg )
- CGS Super Psyco LFO ( http://www.wiseguysynth.com/larry/panel/jpg/ 
dh-cgs-superpsycho.jpg )

and for sure some other modules...

I might consider starting a panel service for EU, in cooperation with  
some others.
There is a growing interest but problems with making front panels...

I would, although I'd weigh the cost vs. Bridechamber panels...

Sure, I would like to buy all of those from you.  How much do you want, 
including shipping to the U.S.?  Can you accept Paypal?

Thanks,

Richard

But the Bridechamber panels don't match Paul's graphics. Some people are 
picky.

count me in on that one as well, namely for the
miniwave to MOTM as well as a few that I'm not sure of
yet.  If the full on custom panel processing is goin
on, I've been wanting to do a PAIA theremax
module...so put me down for a couple at least!

So how close do people want? I should probably make sure before I get 
the next 30 designs silkscreened! :)
I was of the mind that if I made the same format panels that were 
very close to MOTM in looks, and were of high quality, that would be 
great. 
 
Other reasons I didn't want to match 100%:
I'm not MOTM.
I'll never get to 100% unless I get the exact tickmark graphic. 
Stooges were not 100%, I thought. 
MOTM is not 100%! From the first modules I bought to the last, there 
is variation in tickmark design. There is also inconsistency in jack 
labeling (above or below). 
Honestly, I like my variation better. I think it's more legible, and 
less... gothic or something. 

You should have seen the orange panels I wanted to do ;p

Seriously, though, I'd like to know how close people want me to get, 
and if there's a problem with me not being close enough. I don't know 
if people don't tell me.

Cheers,
Scott

Scott,

at least from my perspective what should be matched:

a) Mounting holes

b) Panel Thickness. I realized after installing all the modules, that  
the VC Resistor i built (from you)
     is working excellent, but the panel _thickness_ is noticeable  
less than MOTM/OAKLEY whoever.

I don't care about design and matching all front designs. It might  
look prettier, but i am not building my
synth to win the beauty contest.

my .2 cents.

--jan

Not a problem.  Variation is good.  Even pots off the
MOTM grid are preferable (like the Oakley little-lag
fpe design).

Haven't got a 2U yet, but the 1U is substentially (50%) off, so i  
assume 1,5mm thickness vs. 3mm.
However -- the design fits well into my "mixtures" of modules.

Unfortunately, i don't have a company like Bridechamber here in  
Europe, because import tax eats up a bit of
the cheaper price.

oakley's pcb's rocks, but the lack of people offering panel  
engraving / silkscreening in europe makes it hard
to build a lot of other modules :-(

In the last 4 weeks i lost 2 suppliers of my front panels *sigh*

Isn't this guy still around?

Hi Yes i d buy some of these also although I more concerned about delivery times and price then matching xyz. So long as it looks reasonably smart and i dont

I was conversing with Larry some time ago about doing a generic panel 
on his next run - a 1U with 4 knobs and 4 jacks, and a 2U with 8 knobs 
and 8 jacks.  I was thinking of tick marks for the knobs, center 
markers for the jacks and knobs, and a thin white alignment line where 
the legends would be.  You can print white text on a black background 
on adhesive-backed labels, cut them out, and place them over the 
alignment line. I cover mine with some clear tape prior to cutting 
them out.  They look reasonably nice if you cut them right at the text 
edges. This 'hides' the edge of the label and the white lines would 
give you an alignment reference.

This is similar to the MusicFromOuterSpace Universal Synth Module 
Front Panel but would have the tick marks.  To me, panel thickness, 
black, and tick marks are the requirements for reasonable 
compatibility.

Obviously we never got to the next run.  I'd buy some of these.

Hi Fabio,

you got photos to see the panels? Could you give pricing details?

   regs, Michael.
