I tried a layout with dual VUs and these original sized knobs, but failed. Then it dawned on me, why use two small VUs when you can have one much more accurate big one, just shared with the two units!
Here she is, and I think it looks (and will work) great. It's a work in progress front panel designer layout and I just pasted the original knob images on top.
Bypass is that "off" on the attack knob (I'll change the text later), so I can have dual bypass with no extra layout estate. Power on/off is useless on the front panel in my opinion so it goes on the back next to the PSU. The VU switching in the middle should be a trivial mod.


I think the symmetric one looks even better.
I'm definitely getting a stereo set of the original knobs with the switches right now! :grin:
Thanks Echo North for making this possible.
