I said madness in one rack U, not 2. I stick by
definine madness as fitting the words for 144 parameters into one
rack

way for Evo to fit into my studio by hanging it over the rack containing my
MAQ16/3's with two sheetmetal brackets screwed into the screws on the back
of Evo. Not the best solution, BUT I have ZERO deskspace, so for me, a rack
version is very appealing. ; My rendering works fine except that the matrix
labels would have to be quite small (and side-by-side for the shift buttons
instead of over/under, but the knobs are farther apart so that works ok),
but there are other solutions to that (like a pull-out card you can slide
out of the panel when needed, etc. I think it would work in any case, esp.
considering 'rack' owners IMO tend to edit via software (maybe I'm wrong
there? at least in my experience that's somewhat true). But in any case, it
isn't madness - just a different preference.
