[Ended] Facehugger module layout poll

Post by flight »

Hey everyone, I'm working on a Kickstarter for a new module, the Facehugger arpeggiator/sequencer/burst generator/envelope generator/LFO/etc., and am looking for everyone's input on slide pots and panel widths. Let me know what you'd want!
Option 1: 10 hp - 3 rows of four 10mm travel slide pots (8 level sliders and 4 parameter sliders).

Option 2: 16hp - 1 row of eight 20mm slide pots and one row of four rotary parameter pots.

I do think both look good but I prefer the 16hp version.

My sausage fingers start tingling just looking at the 10hp version... I think the 16hp is the way to go considering that "dialing" in some settings might be difficult on the smaller.

Larger looks more performative, also more intuitive for the sliders at the top.

6hp is a a small price to pay to get the sliders on one row.

Thanks everyone for all the input, it was all very helpful!
I also did a poll on Instagram and even asked a few dealers directly, and the overwhelming opinion is for the wider, 16hp layout.
The 16 gives a lot more space to add some features I had been forced to leave out, so I hope that will be worth it for the 10hp folks. More information coming soon!

If anyone is interested and gets in early enough, last I checked, you could still Kickstart one at $214 instead of $285...$71 savings. The ones left at that price have the "utility" panel, which is great for me, because I am honestly not a fan of the panel graphics. But as an add-on, you can still get the color of your choice for $20, which is still cheaper than the $285 price.
