as for the topic here, yes it likely would require a custom panel, cut to host the ribbon, 84HP wouldn't be enough, though the ribbon controller is not a eurorack module
your question indeed would be a different topic, few 1U modules can be set vertically on 3U row taking 8hp

Can't help on this too, but I would be interested in the topic in
general: How to convert 8HP/ 3U modules to 1U modules. The 8HP is 40.30
mm wide, 1HU is 44.45mm. So one would have to create a new front panel.
Am I right?
