Re: Bananaizing Other Modulars?

2004-10-16 by Ryan Ryan

how difficult is it to replace 1/8" jacks with banana jacks? is drilling required to get the holes bigger to fit the banana jacks? I'm considering replacing all the jacks on a vostok with banana jacks for easier integreation. a patchbay seems way too annoying. But perhaps replacing all the other jacks might be even more annoying?:-)
