Hi All

I'm moving this idea our of the A-101-6 thread so it doesn't get lost. Basically my idea for a new utility module is a 6HP module with 8 switches and 8 LEDs arranged in a row vertically. The LEDs only indicate the switch positions so are not 100% necessary - this could make it 4hp. Each switch simply has a ~70cm lead with a jumper-style connector on it to allow it to connect to the option jumpers on the back of many of Doepfer's modules. Changing the switch would effectively put on, or remove the jumper without having to remove the module(s) from the case.

There are so many modules with hidden jumper functions that I believe this module would be a very  useful addition.

Florian has already mentioned that this is a very simple DY module, but I believe the Doepfer should make an official one because

1) Not everybody enjoys/is good at DIY

2) A DIY module may not look as good as a properly engineered and printed ones  

3) I only want Doepfer modules in my box!

Also, Doepfer already successfully sell 'easy to DIY' modules - All four of the mult series for example.

Another idea for it would be to use DPDT switches and have 3-way cables/connectors to allow interfacing with other manufacturers' 3-way jumper blocks.

So, Dieter, what do you think of this idea
