So general question for people; What hand do you usually use to tweak knobs? I've noticed that my hand blocks the LED when I turn the knob with my right hand. If most people tweak with their right hand, and would find that annoying, I can shift the LED to the left, and the knob to the right, but that would obviously require a PCB redesign. How do people feel in general about it? I guess I'm very slightly leaning towards a redesign, but I think the front panel is slightly more aesthetically pleasing in the current layout, haha.

I'd vote for a right hand not occluding the LED, LED above knob? Good idea. Here's an updated layout with a 5mm LED above the knob, and the trig off to the side. I'm liking it. I like having the knobs on the left, as that's kind of standard, and will avoid conflicts with them being too close to a module to the right. Attachments:

I'm sweet with both. with modular you have to twiddle with either.

Same many times I tweaked 2 knobs at once. So both left and right...

I'm just trying to come up with a one-size-fits-all type solution.

To keep everyone up to date; I've ordered prototypes of the v0.3 hardware, depending on whether or not it works we could be looking at a mid-July release. π

August update! Progress - I received and tested the v0.3 hardware. I found a few issues with it, which have been resolved.
- I placed a full order of the v1.0 boards, which are currently in production.
- I ordered new packing materials, should look schnazzy.
Hold-ups
- Waiting on knobs from Robert.
- There are currently some bugs in the save/recall code which I need to fix.
- Sync input doesn't handle tempo changes as well as I'd like.
- I can't seem to find any time. π
Hopefully, if not complete, I'll be very close to complete by the end of the month.

September Update!
Progress: - v1.0 hardware has arrived and is being assembled! - Save code is now working as expected! - Knobs shipment received from Robert (thanks)! - Sync issue was with Euclid Grid and not 2Auto. π€¦ββοΈ
Hold-ups: - Noise issue identified on v1.0 hardware. Should be fixable by swapping out a component on the board.
All other parts and shipping materials have been acquired though, so I think a Sept shipping date is likely! π
Next up is going to have to be creating a manual.

Nothing here, though I don't think I've had tracking either so not 100% sure it's on the way even.
