Hi Moe!

What you are seeing is the "Euro" or Eurorack Format,

It is slightly taller than a Frac Rac, and wider.  The panels
are also much thicker, and the mounting holes are slotted
so that the module may fit into either a Doepfer cabinet
or either an Analogue Systems, or Analogue Solutions rack.

Euroracks have mounting holes for modules measured in
HP units, (short for "Horizontal Pitch). The Cynthia
Euro Format Zeroscillator is 36HP Wide.

(182.37 mm wide x 128.44 mm tall)

As far as the look & feel goes, instead of mimicking
the look of other Eurorack formatted devices, I chose
to go with a "Silver on Silver" theme that could perhaps
be described as something in-between retro test equipment,
and complex military radios.  It fits-in nicely with the other
modules already available in the format, but we are breaking
new ground here, and it has it's own sophisticated look.

Best Wishes!

Cynthia
