Actually, they are *cut* only (non-shelving).
Mult out may be a good idea.

In all the controversy no one seemed to notice that cut/boost knobs should be labeled -5 to +5, not 0 to 10.

Also, since any of the options seem to have some jack space left, it would be REALLY nice to have at least one extra out. This can save on patching and mults, especially if you’re putting this inside a feedback loop.

Well since almost everyone else has spoken their piece on this, I will enter
mine.

1. Actually, any layout is fine, as most have said, it is about the sound.
Having said that, I do have some preferences.

2. I do not like the knobs that are so low on the panel. I guess I would
not mind so much if the panel was crammed full. But, it is not. I would
prefer that no knob is lower than what can have at least one jack under it.
I would rather use some of the space "off board" space where the EQ I/O
switch is for a couple of the knobs / controls.

3. Since the Low and High controls are different (more shelving) and I
understand it, they are the two that make sense to move into Column 3. One
in row 1 and one in row 4. The space between Low and High can have switch
and LED.

4. I like keeping pots on the board. But having only 2 of 10 off the board
does not seem bad to me.
