Perspective...

For perspective, here is an original, semi-custom, late model Steiner-Parker Synthasystem. Note there are some custom modules in this that Nyle didn't recognize. In the bottom row, right hand cabinet is a frequency counter. Nyle said it didn't really work that well. There are also a couple of modules which look like multiples, one with some attenuators. SDIY then, too I guess. Why not?

You'll also see that the physical size of these modules are very close to the euro-rack panels I've laid out. I really tried to keep the layouts faithful to these, but in an effort to make the widths even multiples of a euro-rack, etc. I had to compromise on some of the smaller width modules. But, I think a pretty faithful reproduction of the original...

The best compliment Nyle paid me was when he saw some of the first prototype modules racked, he thought he was looking at one of his original systems. That made me really happy.
