New panel for my XR VCO. Hopefully have some other stuff to show soon. I made and labeled the panel myself and I'm pretty happy with it.

Hi Teknik,
Whats a VCFS? Also, I've been admiring your modules for a while, but I've never seen a shot of them all together, which would be cool... _________________ http://loudestwarning.tumblr.com/ |

I just finished this today. It's been a couple months in the making and would not have been possible without the generous help of everyone here.
Thanks!
I decided to go with a single panel design similar to an ARP 2600 or Macbeth M5. The graphics are a mix of different elements from different manufacturers.
I'm planning a sequencer cabinet to sit on top and eventually two smaller cabinets full of individual modules on either side. Roland 700 style.
I've been documenting my progress on a blog.. http://dronegoat.blogspot.com/
Now to figure out how to use it..

Holy Shit! That's the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Brilliant graphics and logical layouts and I love the idea of using banana couplers for the normalized connections instead of switching jacks. _________________ " I went through quite a few trannies til I found one I liked" - Wild Zebra |

Amazing work! Really inspiring!
How did you do the panel? Is it screenprinted?
