Looks to me there is room for a 8-pot arrangement with standard size knobs 
like the MOTM-480

http://www.synthtech.com/motm480.html

The LEDs could be fitted in somehow.  This assumes that at least four of 
the pots would be panel-mounted with wires running to the circuit board.  I 
am wondering if one reason for Tony's layout is that the pots are to be PCB 
mounted.
