Elektor Formant Modular

im in the process of putting a combined system together out of few older elektor modules and newer manufacturers (curetronic/doepfer). 

ive noticed that alot of the elektor pcbs have pins on that back of the cards, suggesting that they be hardwired to other modules.  for example the adsr(3u version) has an envelope in and a gate out. 

i was thinking it would be interesting to create ins/outs on the faceplate to allow for more routing and make them more compatible and fit better into a bastard system. 

does anyone have experience or tips on this?  thanks in advance.

My system has Formant modules and homemade stuff.
I put some inputs on the front, like the adsr-gate. Inserting a plug overrides the internal connection. This setup reduces the amount of connecting cables.

The big advantage of building your own synth is being able to tailor every single detail the way you like it.

thanks.  i spent some time yesterday with the manuals and schematics, slowing figuring out those overrides and the possibilities of extending various modules. 

anyone else have any favorite mods to elektor modules?
