All you Photoshop geniuses see if a dual, triple, or Quad LPG makes sense. Having the CV jacks in a vertical column on the far left seems asking for trouble unless it's over in the "2nd" jack column. Paul S.

First we need to know what jacks and pots we need for those special MOTM only features. John Loffink jloffink@...

Does that mean GAIN pot, CV IN, IN, and OUT? Plus LED? You could fit two of those in a 1U.

Add a CV Mod pot per channel, and GAIN is not exactly "correct" INITIAL is better. Paul S. ----- Original Message -----

On 6/11/03, Paul Schreiber put forth: > >Add a CV Mod pot per channel, and GAIN is not exactly "correct" >INITIAL is better. If you add a CV mod pot (two pots and three jacks per LPG), then two LPG's would not fit on 1U. If you decide on a 2U dual unit and add another jack and another knob per channel to add new features and fill up the panel, then you might as well make a 1U single LPG. No matter how you configure two LPG's in a dual unit, if each channel has the same amount of features, then result is always divisible by two :) Especailly considering that competing manufacturers offer LPG's, adding extra features seems important. Also, didn't the 292 have a "amplitude-both-frequency" switch for each channel?? That's a feature that might be worth keeping. Since most folks don't know what a LPG does, I think 1U module would sell better than a 2U module -- it would be less of risk. Anyone who wants more LPG's could just buy more modules :)

It *might* fit if you use smaller pots for the CV and a smaller knob and you scrunched up the jacks a little. Maybe even used smaller LEDs. BTW, the Cyndustries version also has the Amp-Both-Freq feature.
