Re: How Do They Do That?

If you mean panels that look exactly like MOTM panels, then you should
look at:

Larry Hendry's site: http://www.wiseguysynth.com/larry/default.htm
he has custom panels made a few times/year that look just like motm
panels. and he also sells special brackets for mounthing these panels.

I use the MOTM format, but my panels are all anodized and engraved
aluminum and they match oakley modules. These are made by:
http://www.frontpanelexpress.com
if you are in the US.

some pictures of the ones I've had made are at my site:
http://www.sdiy.org/destrukto/modular/oakley-multiladder.html
and
http://www.sdiy.org/destrukto/modular/oakley-vco.html

I use Larry's mounting brackets on most of my modules. those on the
pictures are oakley modules which don't require the brackets.
with the brackets it looks like this:

that last panel was made by steve thomas. he makes some cheaper aluminum
engraved panels. look here:
http://monopole.ph.qmul.ac.uk/~thomas/synthdiy/cnc.htm

It's alot cheaper in europe, but shipping costs and the exchange rate
make it not quite as good of a deal in the US.

also, the modular synth panels mailing list to get frontpanelexpress
designs is here:

I just got back a 2U 19" panel from frontpanelexpress for my 9090 drum
synth. and It looks so nice. I just like staring at it...
