OK folks, it's a *dead heat*. I need to decide by midnight tonite. Start stuffing the ballot box.

They are not the same style, as fitting on the panel is even *more* important :)

And, these buttons are only used 0.01% of the frequency as the uSeq buttons. I haven't used the
front panel buttons on my Pro 2000 in about 2 years :) MIDI-CV converters tend to be "set and
forget".

Yes and no.

In order to clear the bottom rail, the jacks are all offset upwards (relative to existing
modules) about 0.200 inches. The row-to-row spacing is the same, 1.00 inch. What this means is
that these modules (uSeq and MIDI-CV) jacks are not aligned with the other module's rows.

Also, be aware that the jacks are on pc boards about 1.5" deep. If you have a *slanted cabinet*
in mind, chances are that these modules *will not fit* into the bottom cabinet row, because the
jack pcb will collide with the cabinet bottom. You will have to add about a 7/8" strip across the
bottom to allow the tilted boards clearance.
