200e

most of the function of the panel is to configure and create complex
routings of the huge amount of data sent frmo the touch pad (velocity,
position, pressure, and key numbers...)

the rings just send pretty much raw x/y/z out the banana jacks

...so if you threw out the touchplate there wouldn't be much left for
the module to do. arguably not worth its space...

lightning 3, on the other hand, is focussed on letting the user create
arbitrary and sophisticated carvings-up of the physical and gestural
spaces perceived by the x/y/z sensor...
