AW: [Doepfer_a100] re: Doepfer style front panels

2006-07-25 by hardware@doepfer.de

Jack,

you find a detailed description of the front panel measures on our website:
www.doepfer.com > PRODUCTS > A-100 > Mechanical details.

For the printing a font called "Avant Garde" is used. As far as I know
that's a Windows standard font.

Concerning the measures within a front panel: the standard vertical distance
between the (normally 5) potentiometers or sockets is 20.32 mm. Even the
horizontal distance between sockets and potentiometers is 20.32 mm. But this
is valid only for standard front panels (e.g. A-120, A-122, A-130, A-131,
A-138 and similar). For special front panels (e.g. A-113, A-107) the
measures are different. If mainly sockets are on the front panel (e.g.
A-180, A-160, A-161) the vertical distance is 13.55 mm.
