Default 003 Knobs
Is it just me or do the new "Toadstool" knobs on the 003 look a bit like something else?

I think it was modeled after this.

Those knobs are way cooler than the 002 knobs, which I felt were an embarassment. The fury at the aesthetics is probably just displacement from the disappointment over the lack of new i/o capability.

I think the new boxes look very slick and current, maybe a little cutting edge for your average muso who still loves chickenheads and wishes they drove a '57 impala.

Has anyone noticed that 003 knobs are based on the ICON design? They're not exactly the same but have been borrowed from the idea. I agree with peppertree, I think the 003 looks slick!

I think the 002 Looks Very 1990's; The 003 really does look like an 1980's AMIGA.... following the current trend the 004 should look 1970's cool and feature...... lets see; 18 I/O.......3 headphone outs......Wordclock and No SMUX....
