4U powered boats for modular synthesizer in LW Format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Loudest Warning format is a set of standards for panel size and mounting holes used for creating individual modules at the 4U (7″ tall) size<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most popular 4U synth is the Serge synthesizer, which was based on a full width (17″ x 7″) panel. Multiple modules are laid out on the panel and built behind the full width panel. It’s a great system… but once built, you can’t move the modules around. And you need to select a full panels worth of modules before hand. No adding just another filter or one oscillator later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LW format was discussed and created in\u00a0THIS<\/a>\u00a0thread on the Muff Wiggler Synth DIY forum. Charlie Kerr came up with a set of standards that at a minimum allow for uniform mounting and spacing, all other details of module design is left up to the designer.
