Re: [motm] My initial take on the panel discussion

2005-12-03 by Robert van der Kamp

I really hate the FPE panels. I've a (lovely) Oakley 
EFG-Deluxe sitting here among all my MOTM stuff, and can't 
stop noticing it. The finish of the panel is just butt ugly 
imo. So if possible, please please continue to make panels 
with the original MOTM finish. Those just look awesome, a 
good match with the sound.

I'm more relaxed regarding the graphic design of the panel. 
I wouldn't mind a little more 'busy' design as long as it 
is done with good taste. 

The biggest problem I now have with my MOTM modular is the 
fact that the modules do not have any separator lines, like 
the vertical stripes you see along the long sides of the 
dotcom modules (and original Moogs I guess). I still hope 
to find some sort of light colored or metal strip that I 
can insert between the modules. Alternatively, a panel 
design with a box drawn on it, or just two vertical lines 
would do equally well I think.
