    Yea, there are a couple of pedalboard layout tools. I tinkered with Temple's configurator a few weeks ago to try to figure out a good layout for me. It does rotate pedals btw, but only in 90deg increments.

    Alternative enclosures that might work next to the FCs

    I think I found the near absolutely perfect enclosure! It's just about ½" short of the depth, and a little short on the height, but it's really REALLY close! I've got a wad of paper underneath the back end to elevate it slightly. Could probably even use some standoffs when mounting the cover to...

    Anyone use a Rocktron Midi Mate with their III?

    While I've never used one, if it's capable of sending MIDI commands, it CAN work. The real question is how easy is it to program to work with any device, much less the III.

    Who understands what's going on here & wants to build this (for pay)? LED Rotary Rings

    The fact that it requires USB connections & has no actual MIDI ports makes it probably require a RasPi/Arduino interconnected.

    Slick expansion module for FC's

    Thanks for that! Did you ever paint your 2 panel one? Your idea of using the existing top/front mounting holes is a good idea.
