2 Pots & 10 Jacks on 1U

2 Pots & 10 Jacks on 1U

2002-05-16 by coyoteous

How crazy is this?  I made a graphic mock up (standard MOTM 
spacing) and it looks okay, but the top jacks are closer to the 
bottom pot than the top pot is - too close?

I put the mock up in the files area: 2P10J.jpg

The labels are meaningless, just left over from what I started 
with (for the most part).

Not crazy at all. Looks like you left the pot and jack spacing 
standard, correct?

Don't worry about the top jacks being too close to the pot - every 
MOTM module sold has the bottom pot so close to the top jacks that 
the bottom numbers have to be left off the pot tic marks. Your 
spacing is actually quite a bit more spacious than that.

Be aware that for DIY, you will only have two pots available to mount 
a circuit board from if you use Larry's Stooge brackets. If you have 
a fairly large pcb to mount, you may have to do something creative.
