[motm] Re: Mixing Formats, was: Moving to a different (ModCan) panel format.

2006-06-16 by Jason Proctor

reformatting basically involves taking the PCB 
from another form factor but not the panel or 
(generally) jacks, pots, knobs, etc. the new 
panel is made by stooge or schaeffer or (insert 
panel maker here).

my modular is MOTM format but has modules from 6 
(shortly to be 8) manufacturers. it contains a 
blacet miniwave and blacet vc-envelope, both of 
which were reformatted from blacet kits into MOTM 
panels.

mr blacet makes it a bit easier by selling 
minimal kits without hardware for us reformatters.
