This is great. The ability to normalize a "standard" voice structure would save a ton of patchcords and panel clutter. The header is a great idea for bused functions, just unused pads would work for all other uses and would not cost as much (don't even drill them). This is one of

Nick, you must not replace but add a R. I'm no techhead but since C1 is a polarized cap you have to add another electrolytic one, but I could be mislead. Anyhow, electrolytic caps are the favorite caps of anybody new to electronics since it is fairly easy to read their value: It
