Decorated Function<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have a pair of Make Noise Function<\/a> v1, 2012, the first release. I use them often. Their only drawback is the annoying power-up in cycling mode. A while back I switched the knobs, as shown in my Universal Slope Love<\/a> post. The originals looked like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Blue knobs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There have been a number of panels over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
White knobs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Black and gold<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Grayscale version<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
M\u00f6rk panel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I decided to replace the panels with ones from M\u00f6rk <\/a>Modules<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Old and new Function panels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Some people complain about Make Noise’s weird graphics, finding them confusing. Grayscale offered simplified versions, but M\u00f6rk has an even more minimal style. The only decorations are the box outlines around output jacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replacing the panel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since I had already replaced the knobs and fitted Bananuts, removing the knobs and nuts was all that was needed. Underneath I found that each jack had two washers mounted, behind the panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Function under the panel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The black panel was fitted, held by the Bananuts. Gold for input, Silver for trigger and hang, Blue for control voltage inputs, Black for outputs, and Red for pulse outputs. Then replacing the black Davies clone knobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
