Modular Synth Panels

Thanks for the information, that wasn't clear to me and my PCB is still 
unpopulated.

Yeah, but I still miss a second input.

And I for myself have enough ring modulators elsewhere so I don't want 
one
in my Wave Multiplier module.

Leaving the jacks unpopulated looks ugly. :-(

In the meantime I have some more questions:

- Can I use Stooge PCB-brackets on the frontplate?

If not:

How does your PCB-bracket work?
It looks like it is connected to two pots.

And: Can I mount the Ken Stone PCBs without having to drill further 
holes
(which I have to on the Stooge brackets)?

Thanks in advance,
Joachim
